INTERIOR DESIGN R

The two-storey ground floor dwelling is freely developed on an atypical plan consisting of two intersecting rectangles that provide a high degree of independence to the different rooms, while at the same time allowing natural lighting and establishing unexpected functional relationships between spaces. Thus, the living-room on two levels with a basilical section receives light both zenithally, from the glazed terraces on the first floor, and from the ground floor, and the separation between it and the dining-cellar-kitchen is semi-transparent through a huge aquarium with reef species. The triple orientation of the living room - to the garden, to the full-height stone-clad fireplace on both levels and to the aquarium - is enhanced by the indirect, filtered relationship with the terraces of the two first-floor bedrooms. The large surfaces and continuous planes highlight the beauty of natural materials - wood and stone - which define an airy interior volume and embrace the walls without weighing them down. The architectural lighting fixtures and furniture objects are discreetly part of the sober and elegant atmosphere, where the only architectural accent is given by the materiality of the textures. The dining room and wine cellar are detailed in the same minimalist line, with built-in furniture, large stone slab finishes and a signature object. The kitchen island is a strip of solid wood cut and folded to become a bar, and the wine bar repeats the same natural wood texture at each horizontal level. The hallway between the kitchen and dining connects to the vertical circulation that links the ground floor to the two master bedroom levels and then to the guest bedroom and penthouse on the second floor.
