Casa Amaranto

Casa Amaranto is the renewal of an early 1950s Milanese apartment. The redistribution of spaces takes place through two main expedients: the first is the creation of a walk-in closet between the main bedroom and the living area; the volume, conceived as a box, characterizes both spaces becoming a sculptural satin coloured element with iridescent reflections. Matteo Bonetti The second reorganization device consists of a set of two openings at full height, that can be closed by two large sliding oak wood panels. If necessary, the kitchen, the bedroom and the living room can be divided, otherwise they constitute one continuous visually interconnected space.  Matteo Bonetti The old Venetian Terrazzo floors (Palladiana) of the s...

Apartamento TNI

The renovation of the TNI apartment is located in the Edifício Canadá, designed by Elgson Ribeiro Gomes in the 1960s, a remarkable modernist building in the landscape of Curitiba.

House renovation at Almirante St

The extraordinary location in Almirante street, found in the elegant Justice district of Madrid, characterizes this early 20th century building. The typology of the dwelling, with balconies towards the street and long building depth illuminated through patios, was in its days very used in houses of all type in the city. When they reach larger dimensions, long corridor routes are created in order to communicate both ends of the building. Mariela Apollonio Controlling and reducing the routes inside the house were, from the very beginning, a fundamental part of the proposal; as a result, rooms are connected each other through alternative circulations without considering the corridor, thus breaking its linearity. The living rooms, all i... More

Casa B-Star

Overlooking the green and charming setting of the Olympic Village, this flat has been subjected to a contemporary reinterpretation in its original layout. Regular floor plans and ribbon windows have allowed for a re-design of the rooms. The spaces destined for the living area have remained formally unchanged; however, the removal of some vertical partitions makes the circulation between them more fluid.

v131 apartment.

Apartment v131 is located on the top floor of a residential building in Ivan Vazov district at the entrance of South Park in Sofia, Bulgaria. In its original layout, the apartment had 42 sq.m. of living space and 14.4 sq.m. of terraces. Space distribution was quite outdated, so we had to make radical decisions and completely overhaul everything. Sandro Arabyan To cater to the lifestyle of the new residents, we reconfigured the function of every room. Given the limited space at our disposal, we seized the opportunity to fully integrate one terrace and partially integrate the other.  With the newly redesigned layout, we were able to expand the living space to almost 51 sq. meters, while still reserving a lovely 5 sq.m. terrace wi...

Atelier in Omori

We planned a landscape architect's atelier in a room of a 48-year-old SOHO building near Omori Station in Tokyo. There is a park called Omori Shell Mound Ruins Garden near the planned site, and Omori Shell Mound is called "the birthplace of Japanese archeology" because the first academic excavation survey in Japan was conducted here. For planning a landscape atelier in such a land with that history, the design was assembled with the concept of "Layer x Green".​ Forward Stroke Inc. Since plants are placed in the room, the walls were finished with a light green water-based paint in consideration of compatibility with plants. The floor is finished with self-leveling material so that plants can be placed and it can be used freely, aiming... More

Marvila Attic

The project is located in Marvila, one of the oldest industrial and working class areas in Lisbon, a district that, while not being fully integrated into the city, ended up belonging to it integrally, undergoing a process of urban regeneration, awaited for decades. Alexander Bogorodskiy Alexander Bogorodskiy The project aimed to transform an attic apartment without any living conditions into a bright and open space with a breathtaking view for the Tagus River, creating an idea of a “lighthouse”, a shelter at the top of the building, which opens for the distant views of the surrounding built environment, framed by the sky and the sea, disconnected from the disturbance of the city life.
