Soulful Spaces
Meticulous Craftmanship
Authentic Stories.
The essence of the studio.
Studio Sernella crafts serene, soulful spaces with meticulous craftsmanship, transforming abandoned spaces in Italy, into havens of inspiration and tranquility, where every detail is a whisper of love, history, and the joy of living.
Design. Renovation Guidance. Property Care.
Buying or renovating a home in Italy is both a dream and a challenge.
From navigating local rules to finding reliable craftsmen, it takes time, clarity and a good eye for design.
At Studio Sernella, decades of experience in architecture, design and restoration come together, where we create homes in Italy that balance Northern precision with Italian warmth.
We guide every step with structure and intuition:
planning renovations, refining layouts, sourcing materials, styling spaces and coordinating trusted professionals.
So you can focus on enjoying your home, knowing it’s cared for, in every detail.
I’ve always had a need to understand things, fully.
As an engineer and project manager, I used to translate complex designs into clear instructions for craftsmen on site. Every detail had to make sense before it could be built.
That same curiosity and drive to make processes smooth now shape everything I share through Studio Sernella.
When we bought our home in Italy, I realised how little practical, readable information was available about buying or renovating here. So I started researching - deeply - and writing.
What began as a personal blog grew into a complete, easy-to-read guide for anyone dreaming of a home in Italy. You can download the guide for free here → Click here for the Guide.
From there, more tools followed: checklists, budget sheets, and planning templates to help you manage your renovation with confidence, whether you do it yourself or work with local professionals.

Developing Timeless Homes in Piemonte
What started as a shared plan to combine our skills has become our way of living.
With a background in design, engineering and construction, we saw in Piemonte exactly what we were looking for, fair solid old houses with character and potential.
Here, we bring our strengths together: Jennifer’s eye for vision, detail and design, and Boy’s craftsmanship and experience leading complex restorations.
Together we restore and reimagine houses that fit naturally into the landscape. homes built with care, balance and lasting quality.
Each project reflects the same ambition: to create places that feel right for today and stand strong for the next hundred years.
