Villa Girasole, meaning the sunflower in Italian, is a house built in the 1930s in Marcellise, near Verona in northern Italy, to the design of the architect Angelo Invernizzi. The building was designed to rotate so as to follow the sun's movement across the sky, just as a sunflower turns to face it, which is how the house got its name.
