The design of this villa is the story of a continuous dialogue between interior and exterior, thanks in part to the choice of materials used, an expression of the taste and personality of those who live there.
The villa opens to the view after crossing a gate that filters the view, an invitation is given by a staircase with wide steps that opens onto Corten planters.
The entrance leads directly into the living area, conceived as a space that welcomes,
accompanies, and pampers. The eye is immediately drawn to the bush-hammered travertine cladding that covers the exterior wall and continues inside. Entering the living area, we encounter the fireplace that filters and hides the kitchen from view, creating a sense of gradual discovery.
The wood paneling covers the walls and rises to the ceiling, enveloping the space, becoming part of the architecture and no longer just a finish. The kitchen with its island is designed for living and sharing, while the back becomes a custom storage element that organizes, conceals, and leads to another area of the home.
In the guest bathroom, the wallpaper takes center stage, its golden details providing a backdrop to the freestanding sink. The laundry room, also custom-designed down to the last detail for a functional space, leads directly to the garage and utility rooms.
The sleeping area leads into the most private heart of the villa, where the rooms are designed to grow and evolve with the changing lives of those who live there.
The girl's bathroom is clad in polished and stuccoed Travertine, with touches of pink as bold as the girl's personality.
The master bedroom is an open space that dissolves completely through the large windows, creating a total openness, allowing the outdoors to take over. The master bathroom continues the theme with the use of Travertine and oak flooring, defining the character. The exteriors, designed in the choice of plants and the choice of swimming pool, follow the flow of the house, enveloping and flowing through it.
The gently sloping roof, reminiscent of Japan, frames the villa, while the materiality of the interior continues outside with the wood cladding the ceiling, integrating and concealing the lights and cladding the pillars.
The large-slab stoneware floor also creates the desired continuity in the villa's design.
The transparencies and large openings onto the garden, along with the use of wood and stone, conveya sense of lightness and fluidity that characterize the refined elegance of this architecture.
