VIA CARONCINI | natural living

Complete renovation of this large one bedroom apartment. The owners, a young couple, asked us to keep what’s possible from the old apartment and create a cosy home where they can relax. Luckily the original materials of the floor, botticino marble and oak parquet, were already very soothing thanks to their soft, sandy tones. Together with the white walls, timber, woven cane and soft, muted and textural upholstery such as linen we created a very natural mood. Adding the black touches was important to avoid a total coastal look. Colours are introduced through artwork, soft furnishings and feature walls, keeping in mind elements such as the nature and plant life. More

home in Valtournenche

Valtournenche, at 1500 meters above sea level, is famous for its skiing facilities that connect to Cervinia. The typical local house is very low, extremely small in size, completely covered in wood and with warm and feeble lightings. Externally it is possible to find the typical combination of gray stone and wood, of which the local vernacular architecture "rascard" is an exemplary case. The project, instead of enclosing itself in a wooden cocoon, brings into the interior this strong relationship of splitted stone and honey wood. Light colors on the walls, new windows with reduced frames and the open-space kitchen, favor the entry of the snowy landscapes and their lights.  The grey color, applied to some walls and fabric elements, is...

Ischia Luxury house

Dating back to the last century, the "cellaio" was built in one of the most  panoramic areas of the island of Ischia, immersed in the hilly land, at that time subdivided into terraces for the cultivation of the grapes. The harvest period was in fact the only time of the year when the house was inhabited. During the seventies, however, a series of particularly invasive interventions (such as the replacement of the ancient wooden floors with new cement brickworks and the more regular reconstruction of the facades), partially modified the spontaneous and raw character of the original construction forms. What remained unchanged, however, was the compact, rigid and dark character of the cottage. The stone that covers it is in fact a rare ca... More

Solvallagata 68

"Solvallagata68" is a residential project commissioned by a very friendly and social family who is used to host friends and relatives on a daily basis. For this reason the design concept’s goal was to create a spacious open-plan living area encouraging family members and their guests to spend time together. In order to reach the client’s needs it was necessary to demolish part of the wall, which divided the kitchen and the living room, drastically changing the old layout.The custom-made kitchen is developed along the three perimetral walls in order to optimize the room’s layout and create an empty area in the middle of the room, necessary to facilitate dense people flows. The white Corian countertop faces a wide window that b...

Bartoli Design’s new apartment renewal

Quite a radical renovation, Bartoli Design’s project for a couple with two teenagers that moved to Brianza, in a 210 sqm apartment placed on the top floor of a building from the 80’s. The customers asked for the same level of comfort of their previous, more spacious home, with space for family’s valuable pieces of furniture, too. Design-passioned, lovers of sport and relaxed lifestyle, the couple was looking for a luminous living arragement that would enhance their family well-being. This was not the impression the architects got when visiting the apartment for the first time: a maze-like plan with many little spaces and – in the middle – an enclosed staircase that brought to a dark upper mezzanine. Reality was that this space had great pot... More
