About Casa Lambrate
A Glimpse Into Serena Confalonieri’s Vibrant Milan Home
In Milan’s dynamic Lambrate district, Serena Confalonieri invites us into her sunlit two-story loft. Here, she resides with her partner Marcello and their Lakeland Terrier, Fausto.
Melding Commercial and Personal Design
This vibrant space mirrors Serena Confalonieri’s multifaceted personality, filled with objects from renowned design companies. Yet, it’s the items with sentimental value, like travel mementos and art books, that truly define the space. These precious artifacts bring warmth to the home, making it a sanctuary of memories.
Striking Architectural Features
Upon entering, you’re immediately drawn to the interplay of full and empty spaces, with lines both straight and curved. Verticality and depth reinvent themselves, creating a harmonious contemporary lifestyle.
Materials and Color Palettes
Concrete and wood dominate the house, giving it both a modern and cozy feel. Thanks to Wilson&Morris mural paints, Serena transforms plain walls into vibrant blocks of color.
The Living Oasis
The vast open living area serves as the heart of the home. The Pixel sofa by Saba invites relaxation, while the Ring coffee table by Saba becomes an anchor for leisure. A custom wall unit, adorned by Alpi surfaces, rises majestically from the parquet floor, framed by eclectic art.
Kitchen and Dining Delights
The kitchen features Serena’s designs, like the Zdora collection and Baba armchairs. In terms of lighting, Serena chose her collections like the Mata for the kitchen and Tropicana for the dining room.
Nostalgic Collections
Industrial shelving showcases objects close to Serena’s heart. From vintage typewriters to Lego flower vases, each item tells a story, revealing glimpses of her intimate world.
Serene Bedroom Retreat
The mezzanine bedroom boasts lamps from her Layla collection by MM Lampadari. Two night lights accentuate the handmade bed, complemented by Perennials’ blue and white striped curtain, concealing a walk-in closet.
A Bold Bathroom Experience
In stark contrast to the home’s light hues, the bathroom delights with dark shades. A pleated wooden cabinet paired with a green ceramic plate from the Delfo collection by Ceramica Cielo becomes the focal point.
More Than Just a Home
Serena Confalonieri’s abode isn’t just a dwelling. It’s a nest, cherishing past memories while eagerly awaiting future joys shared between its two inhabitants.
