BLV Apartment occupies the noble floor of an early 1900s villa in Blevio, Italy, reworked by TGA Studio and Atelierzero into a generous contemporary residence. The 300 sq m (3,229 sq ft) apartment with an 80 sq m (861 sq ft) perimeter terrace now orients daily life toward Lake Como’s changing light. Historic character stays in play while a precise new palette, sculptural elements, and calm furnishings anchor the refreshed rooms.
Rosso Falun transforms an apartment in Rome, Italy by RM Architecture into a warm, light-filled home shaped by pigment, books, and crafted storage. Across the reconfigured interior, the designers balance pared-back carpentry with playful cat paths and soft textiles to make each room more livable without losing the intimacy of a private dwelling.
Chalet Cristallo stands on a steep slope above Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy, where 3ndy Studio shapes a contemporary alpine house against the Dolomites’ jagged skyline. The project organizes life across two terraced levels, tucking bedrooms and wellness rooms into the ground while lifting a glazed living floor toward the view. Inside, a continuous timber envelope and measured furnishings create a calm, warm counterpoint to the snow and exposed rock outside.
Six Senses Rome occupies a 15th-century palazzo in Rome, Italy, transformed by designer Patricia Urquiola into a contemporary hotel rooted in wellness and urban ritual.

Soft light, generous planting, and calm geometry set a restorative tone from arrival.
Casa C+S is a renovated apartment in Bormio, Italy, reimagined by GiB Studio from two adjoining units into one cohesive home.

Local timber, pale surfaces, and custom joinery give this contemporary interior a distinctly Alpine character and a quietly warm everyday rhythm.
Locanda la Concia rises above Reggio Emilia, Italy, as a penthouse retreat shaped by Eligo Studio within a long-held family building. The project revives a deteriorated property as a contemporary locanda, where restaurant and guest rooms share a narrow vertical volume that balances inherited character with a fresh interior attitude. Guests enter an unassuming structure and move upward into an “Italian riad” that quietly references Marrakech while remaining rooted in local tradition.
Casa ai Colli is an apartment by studio BGArchitetti in Rome, Italy, shaped around a young couple’s daily rituals and shared visual passions.

Every move favors clarity over clutter while framing light, trees, and the slow shifts of the day.
Como Apartment sits high above Como, Italy, where Mingotti e Giordano reshape a 1970s Brutalist apartment into a lakeside interior. Large windows, a green modular sofa, and pop-inflected pieces catch shifting reflections from the water, pulling the view deep into daily life. The result is a layered home that folds lakeside light, retro flourishes, and custom furniture into one continuous, quietly theatrical sequence.
