The apartment, placed in a 50’s residential building in Milan, has gained new identity through sharp and clean design choices. Inspired by a typical Milanese home layout, the project proposes a corridor that acts not only as distribution area but also as welcoming entrance.

While the living area and the bedrooms have a minimal atmosphere, the corridor is characterized by colours and patterns: natural light filters through fanlights realized in birch-wood and polycarbonate; the rooms’ doors consist in sliding birch panels overlapped to the white walls; the ceramic tiles on the floor are laid to create a triangular pattern oriented toward natural light; a soft blue stripe on the wall leads to the living area, running just under the front fanlight. The other rooms are characterized by a light ceramic floor and bright walls. The rectangular white tiles of the bathroom alternate matt and gloss finishes creating a vibrant light effect.
