Peter and Chiara, as well as their two large and very friendly cats welcomed me with warmth at their home. Being architects, their colorful, artistic sensibilities were evident all around, statues, paintings, textile. They showed me around the house, the utilities and the kitchen, and made sure to have cereal and coffee ready every morning. Peter graciously offered to pick me up at the train station. The room was spacious with lots of good light and a view of the town.
I came for a weekend workshop at Providence's convention center, and Peter and Chiara's house was a twenty minute walk from there a quick ten minute walk from the train station so the location was great. Beautiful residential neighborhood on top of the hill east of the river, close to a small park overlooking the town. Mid autumn and streets were lined with turning trees. I felt safe walking late night back and forth from the center to home. a few blocks down are a couple of coffee shops and sandwich places, bustling with great art students energy from RI School of Design across the street. I enjoyed my stay, thank you Peter and Chiara
