HOUSE BOAT

Simone Micheli as Architects

In the splendid landscape of Puntaldìa - in Sardinia - the architect Simone Micheli, designed House Boat - a charming apartment for welcoming guests in an elegant, contemporary-style atmosphere for the needs of a contemporary man. A space dedicated to redefine the conception of luxury, materializing the relationship between man, space, time and no longer conceived as the opulence of goods. Removing the superfluous, the environment acquires aesthetic rigor and the value of existence emerges clearly in the attention of every detail. The ideal of life on a boat, always open to new adventures but perfectly organized in the management of spaces and in the optimization of functions, stands at the beginning of the guide for the design of House Boat, turning into avant-garde thinking in the balance between the future (design, innovation, technology) and the traditional charm of the ancient art of master carpenters.


The space therefore unknowingly modulates and multiplies its ability to satisfy the desires of contemporary man: in the sleeping area, for example, the door of the large wardrobe opens a bathroom area complete with toilet and sink, dedicated to its guests while, in the children's room, a careful and at the same time ironic study of shapes and spaces allowed the placement of four beds. The content hybridize with fluidity and the surfaces are reflected, allowing the space to expand, the information to multiply and the functions to be combined; the shapes leave the opportunity to expand, free themselves and reach the state of global well-being. The colors brighten up the space, heightening its dynamism, the shapes of the furniture create different levels that do not cease to overlap and recompose on the basis of continuous changes in perspective.
