Architect Francesco Marrone uses color and bold lines of trendy design to emphasize the aristocratic soul of a 120 m2 apartment, intended for holiday relaxation, in the heart of the Apulian town.
The interiors are developed on a single level set in an alley which reflects within it the shining soul of the famous white city, and recalls the sixteenth-century splendor before the arrival of the Zevallos dukes. Portals and doors are the speaking traces of this past, carved in the ashlar, in the relief frames, in the friezes.
The whole house looks towards the coast that goes back up to Monopoli, and further up to intercept Polignano a mare. The summits that Ostuni enjoys offer the view a breathtaking panorama, a journey that must necessarily find a shore of equal excellence also in living.
The interior story is therefore made up of details and perspectives, as Studio Francesco Marrone has accustomed us, of connections between elements of strong identity. Art and craftsmanship are everywhere, they shape the space, they define the volumes underlined by a single sunny street, the window that faces the Adriatic. The result is a sophisticated atmosphere, albeit crafted in a minimal way, in line with the aristocratic origins of the rooms.
