Rococo interiors and the decorative arts are some of the liveliest and most imaginative architecture given by Italy around 16th and 17th century. Italian aristocracy built castles, palaces and villa from Sicily to Venice and commissioned artists and architects to create Italian residences of unsurpassed beauty and lifestyle. The main reason of rococo style was decoration and leisure of the everyday life. 

Italian rococo style villa welcomed numerous windows so that more light could fill the interior space and be more graceful and ethereal as added drama. Windows, wall panels, mirrors, and doors went from floor to ceiling to accentuate vertical space. 

Frescoed ceilings, window treatment, parquets or tiled floors, stuccoed walls, and antique furniture were often featured in sitting room

The interiors of Italian villas were set apart by elegant parlors, dainty sitting rooms, graceful bedrooms and guest rooms, drawing rooms, and libraries. These rooms were filled with paintings and furniture all in the style of rococo. Italian furniture and decorative designers arranged motifs such as arabesque, shells, ribbons, swags, leaves, flowers, bamboo, cupids, cherubs, fairies, and angels into decorative frames, panels, and borders.

Reserved and protected by an enclosure stone wall, Lucca's villa style raised the noble floor from the country floor, with the double flight stairway in the entrance. Rooms are symmetrically distributed around the central salon as a lifestyle of easy elegance of those days. Who's arriving from the town is embraced and conquered by the gentle colours and the sharp fragrances of the cypresses, lime-trees, oaks, olives, magnolias, laurels, aromatic herbs and roses in an Italian villa garden.

Italian villa's premium rooms were often decorated with beautiful Tuscan silk curtains, marble fireplace, fine antiques and grand piano. Walls are decorated with trompe l’oeil and frescoes.

Rococo was an art of exquisite intrigue and playfulness. Rococo was inspired by mythological figures, angels, and cherubs in traditional poses abound, real and fanciful beasts and other comical and whimsical creatures from nature reflected the optimism, sensuality, superstitions and fears of man during the Italian Renaissance.
