COCINA: La cocina ha sido diseñada para estar parcialmente separada de la sala de estar. La mayor parte de la cocina es visible desde la sala, por lo que se hizo necesario adoptar un diseño minimalista que estuviera en armonía con el del resto de la casa. La encimera larga de roble natural, que se pliega para formar la pileta, acentúa la longitud de la cocina y dirige la vista hacia el jardín. La pintura especial que ha sido usada no cubre pero acentúa el grano de la madera. Los muebles de cocina de roble blanco han sido diseñados para ocultar sus funciones verdaderas: las dos puertas de cristal ocultan dos gabinetes grandes retroiluminados por un neón verde que coincide con los colores del sofá de la sala de estar.
CUARTO DE BAÑO BLANCO: Las superficies pequeñas e irregulares del baño para visitas han sido transformadas. Todos los ángulos (hasta aquellos entre el piso y las paredes) han sido alisados con la intención de negar cualquier punto de referencia visual. El color blanco puro, el diseño de iluminación y la resina brillante, en conjunto, constituye un aporte para crear una tendencia surrealista. Todos los detalles han sido diseñados por el arquitecto: espejos, muebles de madera con esmalte blanco brillante y elementos decorativos como tubos transparentes plexiglass insertados en la pared. La arquitectura y el diseño están aquí intencionadamente moldeados para crear un espacio donde la mirada fluye sin interrupción.
CUARTO DE BAÑO ROJO: El cuarto de baño rojo ha sido concebido para crear un ambiente cálido y relajante a la vez que destaca los rasgos preexistentes antiguos y estructurales, y la mezcla de ellos con un diseño minimalista geométrico. La bañera empotrada se acentúa con el empleo de colores fuertes que contrastan, como rojo, verde, y plata. Debajo de ella han sido creados pequeños cubos de almacenaje. El rojo dominante es interrumpido por muebles de madera con esmalte blanco brillante diseñados por el arquitecto. Otros pequeños cubos blancos de almacenaje destacan la geometría del espacio, que se desliza en y sobre la pared.
CUARTO DE BAÑO NEGRO: El cuarto de baño negro crea un equilibrio refinado entre colores oscuros y materiales cálidos, como el piso castaño de madera. La geometría espacial ha sido resaltada alternando los tonos blanco y negro de la resina. El diseño de luces ilumina detalles insólitos como el anaquel y el interior del gabinete de roble negro debajo del baño. El estante cuadrado de roble negro y los muebles, diseñados por el arquitecto, aportan a la composición cohesiva del espacio entero.

Interior design project of a private residence located in the Trastevere area, the heart of Rome's historical center.
The
house renovation included the complete reorganization of interior
spaces, as well as the design of new furniture and lighting.
PROJECT'S AIM:
The
project’s purpose is to create a balance between the rustic ancient
building structure and the modern style of the interior. The day area,
conceived as an open space, overlooks a large garden and creates an
‘inside out’ perspective.
The kitchen is partially enclosed behind a
brick wall that doesn’t reach the ceiling, thus preserving the
perception of the continuing space. From the entrance, emphasis is
given to the modern fireplace.
The night area is divided into two
bedrooms, three bathrooms and two walk-in closets. The daring and
functional design shapes in the bathrooms are made possible with the
use of resins and new materials.
WHITE BATHROOM:
The small and irregular surfaces of the guest bathroom have been transformed.
All
angles (even those between floor and walls) have been smoothed, with
the intention of denying any visual reference point. The pure white
color, the lighting design, and the shining resin veneering all
contribute to creating a surreal feeling.
All details have been
designed by the architect: mirrors, white glossy enamel wooden
furniture, and decorative elements such as the transparent plexiglass
tubes inserted into the wall.
Architecture and design are here intentionally melded in order to create a space where the gaze flows without interruption.
RED BATHROOM:
The
red bathroom has been conceived to create a warm and relaxing space by
underlining the existing ancient structural features, and mixing them
with a minimalist geometric design.
The built-in bathtub is
emphasized by the use of strong and contrasting colors such as red,
green, and silver. Underneath it, small storage cubes have been created.
The
dominant red is interrupted by the glossy white enamel wooden furniture
designed by the architect. Other small white storage cubes underline
the geometry of the room, sliding in and out of the wall.
BLACK BATHROOM:
The black bathroom creates a refined balance between dark colors and warm materials, such as the chestnut wood floor.
The spatial geometry has been underlined by alternating resin white and black tones.
The
lighting design illuminates unusual details such as the matte-glass
luminous shelf and the inside of the black oak cabinet underneath the
basin.
The square black oak shelves and furniture,designed by the
architect, contribute to the cohesive composition of the entire space.
KITCHEN:
The kitchen has been designed to be partially separated from the livingroom.
Most
of the kitchen is visible from the open-space livingroom area, so a
minimalist design was chosen to agree with the rest of the house’s
style.
The long natural oak worktop, which folds into the wood
basin, emphasises the kitchen’s length and moves the eye toward the
garden.
The storage units underneath the worktop have a clean
design: the handles are recessed in the thickness of the doors and the
appliances are hidden by the white dyed-oak doors. The special paint
that has been used doesn’t cover but emphasizes the wood’s grain.
On
the other side, the white oak kitchen furniture has been designed to
hide its real functions: the two matte-glass doors conceal two large
cabinets which are back-lit by a green neon that agrees with the colors
of the living room sofa while lighting the entire space.
