Castello di Sem Benelli (1914) it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sem_Benelli
A quasi voler concretizzare il suo simbolismo nel 1914 Benelli fece costruire sulla scogliera di Zoagli a strapiombo sul mare, un castello denominato tuttora "Il castello di Sem Benelli", progettato da Gian Giuseppe Mancini: nel suo complesso, ma soprattutto in ogni particolare architettonico, traspare la personalità del drammaturgo, la stessa scelta dei materiali tra i più diversi ed eterogenei, come marmi, maioliche, mattoni, pietra, rispecchiano le sfaccettature dello scrittore. Nel suo insieme, maestoso e compatto, addolcito dalle linee curve delle ripetute rotondità, contornato da uno sfondo naturale unico, ne fanno quasi una scenografia teatrale ad integrazione delle sue opere.

Almost to make his symbolism concrete, in 1914 Benelli built a castle on the cliff of Zoagli overlooking the Mediterranean sea, still called "Sem Benelli’s Castle", designed by Gian Giuseppe Mancini: Overall, but especially in every architectural detail, the personality of the playwright shines through, the same choice of materials among the most diverse and heterogeneous, such as marble, majolica, brick, stone, reflect the facets of the writer. Majestic and compact, softened by the curved lines of the repeated roundness, surrounded by a unique natural background, this makes it almost a theatrical setting to complement his works.
