The open space house project is the answer to welcoming the whole family in the festive occasions.

The object of transformation is an apartment in the province of Venice, where the owners are used to reunite with their families. The project focuses on the radical transformation of the living area, recovering and transforming the existing furnishings as much as possible, relocating them in a more efficient distribution in terms of overall consistency, both material and color. 

The predominant material is quartz, used as a worktop for the kitchen and the covering of the staircase. The choice of quartz is dictated by functional needs, a space that will be lived and exploited daily without worrying about ruining it. All the furniture is arranged in the perimeter of the living area, visually collected by a plasterboard ring on the same colour of quartz, this arrangement organizes the space and concentrates the functions in the middle of the volumes. 

The object of particular attention of the project is the staircase, clean and simple is hidden by a white lacquered wooden paneling with a small opening that allows a view of the passage of people, without denying the presence of the staircase itself, but making it less dominant in the environment.
