Apartmentrenovation

Inspired by colour and the views of the Atlantic Ocean the clients came to brief JMA and do a few whirlwind days shopping before heading back to Germany. A successful project was done by remote control and the clients entrusted us to manage the finances, contractor and most decisions. Love for Africa and Cape Town is clear as is the origins of the one-party being from Ecuador. The Cape Holiday home is in regular use and more so now after retirement from a busy Hamburg family business.

Before we stepped in, the kitchen and living room were at opposite corners of this sprawling Riverside Drive apartment — thirty paces apart! We united the common spaces, nearly doubling their size.  You can finally enjoy the long run of windows onto Riverside Park in a single glance. Jason Schmidt Jason Schmidt Jason Schmidt Jason Schmidt Jason Schmidt Taking charge of both the architecture and the decorating for this project allowed us to make finishes and furnishings a seamless whole. Challenges along the way included adding central air conditioning without the luxury of outdoor space, relocating poorly placed electrical panels, and navigating a demanding building-review process.

The project involves the complete renovation of a former industrial warehouse, located in an area of Milan undergoing a significant urban regeneration.The site boasts unique features, including elongated spaces that allow an uninterrupted line of sight and zenithal lighting provided by various skylights.  Francesco Dolfo The narrow and elongated nature of this space has guided the internal layout, creating an enfilade.In sequence, starting from the direct street entrance, there is a guest room primarily used as a studio, a corridor housing the main internal access, laundry, and a shared bathroom, leading to the main living area.  The latter consists of a kitchen with a central island and a spacious dining area that opens on...

The main theme of the renovation of this small apartment is rediscovery.In fact, during the demolition works, previously hidden elements such as the vaulted brick ceiling and the arches that characterize the living room came to light. The existing layout followed the typical ringhiera arrangement, with living and sleeping areas divided by the central core of services. Matteo Losurdo The project mainly focused on this core, significantly improving the distribution of spaces. Matteo Losurdo The real challenge was to create different moments and give dynamism to a relatively static layout. Matteo Losurdo Color becomes the main actor and is used in an architectural manner to give uniqueness and demarcate different areas. Ma... More

The project entails a complete renovation of a small apartment for a young professional. Simone Furiosi   The initial design approach involved the demolition of all existing walls that rigidly delineated the rooms.  Simone Furiosi Instead of doors, the spaces are now separated through ceiling lowerings, lines of color, and custom-made furniture.A perspective view encompasses the entire space in its entirety, from one facade to another.  Simone Furiosi Like small brushstrokes on a blank canvas, the color doesn’t define the main functions of the dwelling but rather the voids: the spaces traditionally considered liminal gain their own importance and become a series of chromatic and semantic references wi...

The project involves the complete renovation of a large apartment.The demolition of existing walls has allowed for a proper balance between the sleeping area and the living area.  Simone Furiosi The living area has been opened up as much as possible, creating two conceptual and physical volumes that define different functions and add dynamism to the space.  Simone Furiosi The first volume houses the kitchen, which can be completely isolated or connected to the dining area through full-height sliding doors.  Simone Furiosi The second volume delimits the opposite side and provides access to the more private part of the apartment, including a bathroom, a single bedroom, and a master bedroom with an ensuite bath...

The starting point for the renovation of this large apartment was the desire to create a dynamic system of spaces, able to adapt itself to the different needs of its inhabitants.The general layout of the house includes three bedrooms - one with a walk-in closet - kitchen, laundry room, study and three bathrooms. Sara Magni Sara Magni The fulcrum of the house lies in the living room, where the already existing pink granite fireplace and bow window are reintegrated within a new concept, which breaks the idea of a house made up of a sequence of rooms to create instead a more interesting concatenation of different moments in which to live various experiences. The living room is defined by the creation of two rounded and polychrome v... More
