The apartment, in an eighteenth-century building in the heart of Milan, was in a state of complete abandonment and dilapidated.

The oak nailed parquet - intentionally not stuccoed - the tiles in cement grits and the lining of the internal doors and external doors and windows interact with the contemporary layout and small architectural interventions functional to answer to technicalconstructive needs - such as the system of counter-walls that hide the systems - redefining the spaces and favoring a current interpretation of the genius loci.
