Ida Historic Town Apartments by Asaggio
Designed by Asaggio, Ida Historic Town Apartments are a combination of traditional and modern homes in Sterzing, Italy.
Description
The main idea behind this project was to create a symbiosis between listed buildings, traditions, and modern living.
Corner benches and ceiling paneling were used to integrate the Gothic and Baroque elements of the parlors in the main road and the reinterpretation of the parlor idea in the flats. For centuries, the implementation of this idea, modified in various ways, has been common in traditional South Tyrolean homes.
The materials have been reduced in order to enhance their quality and workmanship and to reinterpret tradition without falling into triviality.
