The project for this property is located in a building in the historic center of Milan that is part of the so-called ‘Fashion Quadrilateral’.
The principals wanted to re-functionalize this apartment,used until recently as a location for a small atelier,changing its intended use. The strategy was to create a luxury accommodation where every detail was taken care of to perfection.
The apartment opens to the living area where in an alcove lined with Canaletto walnut wood is inserted the relaxation area, while on the right and left walls, in a symmetrical system of doors, is enclosed the part of the services and the hidden kitchen. Moving from the living area to the sleeping area, the hallway retains the coffered theme of the paneling present in the living room and thus gives access to the bedrooms. The en-suite bathroom retains the same resin flooring that runs throughout the house, but is embellished with Guatemalan marble inserts that are also present in the sink cabinet and shower. In addition, a special, intimate space within the house was reserved for a cinema room with darker, warmer tones.The materials used work of contrasts between traditional natural elements such as woods and marble and more contemporary ones such as continuous resin surfaces, all to give the image of a project suspended in time.
