Recently reconstructed, this two-storey summer residence was deprived of a well-designed character.

​

Aim of the project is to remodel the open-plan living, dining room and entrance area. Along with that, exterior arrangement should be redefined. The approach seeks to add character to the residence with simple interventions.

​

The solution adopted for the interior was to separate or unite the functions using furnishing or lighting elements. In the living room (placed at a lower position than dining-room and entrance area), the 50 cm-high step dividing living-and dining room was converted into a bespoke bench. Specific spots were lighted in order to indicate the transition between different areas or highlight special features.

​

The exterior space was designed creating separate functions (sitting room, bespoke day-bed, relaxing area) around the swimming pool, all enjoying the sea-view.

​

With a minimalist decorative intent, warm materials (wooden and fabric furniture, fabric lights) were chosen to contrast off-white and grey shades wall-surfaces and flooring.
