About Mini Suite in Milan
Mini Suite by Archventil: A Compact Luxury
Archventil designed a 25 square meter (269 square feet) Mini Suite for a pastry chef, blending essential living functions with elegance and style.
Precision in Every Detail
The suite showcases meticulous attention to detail. A cleverly hidden entrance enhances the main living space’s seamless design. Elena Tomlenova of Archventil highlights the kitchen’s role as the centerpiece, doubling as a creative space for the chef owner. Mirrors in the kitchen area give the illusion of more space, enhancing the suite’s feel.
Efficient Use of Space and Elegant Design
Archventil’s solution for the limited area includes a custom Binova kitchen, with appliances neatly tucked into niches. The kitchen island, facing the living room, provides extra storage and a social spot. Antonio, the owner, appreciates the island’s addition for its space-saving and convenient design. The suite features a professional oven and a dessert tasting cabinet, blending practicality with elegance.
The design smartly combines various functions in one room. The kitchen’s colors match the walls, creating a cohesive look. The Elica cooktop with an integrated hood adds to the sleek design. Dramatic lighting and decorative elements from Vibia and Orac Decor enhance the living area’s ambiance.
A cozy alcove for the sofa bed, complete with bookshelves, maximizes space use. The wardrobe, blending into the room, adds to the functional yet stylish design.
Overall, the Mini Suite showcases smart design choices, including storage solutions in the faux window door frames. The contrasting elements of the walnut parquet, metallic accents, and grey textiles add to the suite’s luxurious feel.
