The Spatial Continuity

This project is an intervention for the recovery of a multi-level old building. The aim of this project was to realize continuity between the different spaces of the living area on the first floor and to realizes mall in dependet spaces in the sleeping area. The different levels are connected by a particular, strongly characteristic staircase. The use the few materials (parquet, white plaster, stone vaults) now emphasizes the architectural features, previously oppressed by unnecessary elements. In all rooms a Listone Giordano parquet was used as flooring. Same material was used to create outer wall and the doors of the wardrobe, the technical room and the bathroom.
