a minimalist leaf pattern. In lieu of curtains, moveable aluminum
panels with stylized oriental patterns draw in the sunlight as desired.
Pinup light units from Studio Italia bring the whole mood together.
The corridors are fully covered with a unique custom-made
wallpaper, Pajlo by Wall&Deco, which stretches from the entrance
to the rest of the house. Wood paneling hides the doors to create a
harmonious feel. The bedroom corridors lead to an open space that
was turned into a work and study place. To the left of the corridor,
Dana, a bespoke sofa table from the Formitable© line, stands proudly.
The study or work area was designed in all white, with a touch of
bronze to stimulate calm and clarity, and white back painted glass
walls. To the left, a shelving unit made of white wood cabinets and
Carrara marble partitions and glass mix for the shelves that come in
a variety of depths. To the right, deep cabinets allow the architect
daughter of the household to store her maps and plans. The L-shaped
work area, in high end Formica from Polymer, was enhanced with
plants to infuse regenerative energy into the working routine. A one
of a kind lighting unit made of customised stylised and suspended
leaves from Formitable© adds a sculptural element to the whole
space.
Last but not least, the master bedroom greets you with clear lines and
soothing emotions as you enter the tone on tone space. You first step
into the dressing room with closets from end to end. The closets are
made of Caleidolegno MW Toglio wood veneer, supplied from Tabu
Italy, and feature hidden handles and bronze mirrors. Both joints and
handles, made of oxidised steel, follow a unique path that goes all
through the room. The TV unit facing the bed hangs from the ceiling
and holds drawers and storage spaces. Further down the line, is a
dressing table with a tryptich of mirrors, with the side mirrors that
double as storage. The bed features a customised velvet headboard,
made and installed in individual pieces to create a trompe l’oeil effect,
while the rest of the wall is covered in bronzed mirrors. Paired, a set
