Apartment in via Pozzi Transforms Milan Home into Warm, Bright Space
Hus renovated this Milan apartment, creating a harmonious interior with a central technical core. Featuring warm tones, the home includes a living room, dining area, and U-shaped kitchen. A mirrored core divides spaces, with an oak floor, classic travertine, and Florim ceramics enhancing the design. The aim was to aesthetically ennoble the core, making it the characteristic element of the project while maintaining a warm, bright palette throughout.
In the renovation of this house for a young couple, the design process started from the overlapping of the spaces required by each of the clients with the structural characteristics of the flat.
Aaer a few variations, the solution found was to place a technical core of the house in the centre of the plan, which did not need to face outwards and whose barycentric posizion was easily usable in the daily life revolving around it. Aaer placing this technical core in the centre of the plan, we continued to ennoble it aesthetically until it became the characteris[c element of the project.
Its surface has been clad on the sides with full-height mirrors to enlarge the most constricted spaces of the flat such as the entrance and the bedroom hallway. For the front side, on the other hand, an ad hoc bookcase was designed in classic travertine whose geometries and tones characterised the en[re living area.
The living area works along the length, dividing into three well-defined bands; the living room, posizioned in the deepest part of the room, the dining area, with the table placed in the centre in axis with the bookcase, and finally, with a precise change in the floor finish, there is the open kitchen developed in a U-shape at the end of the space with a central island.
All the tones in the house play on a pale5e of warm, bright tones, allowing a harmony between the natural oak positioned both on the floor and wall, classic travertine, florim ceramics from the sensi collection and light resin.
