Milan-based architecture and design studio m2atelier unveils the interior design of a private, design-forward residence housed inside one of Mario Botta’s iconic buildings in the Lecco town of Merate. Working hand-in-hand with discerning clients, m2atelier crafted a multi-level home that responds to Botta’s monumental architecture with softness, spatial elegance, and sculptural restraint—an interplay of legacy and lifestyle, precision and poetry.
PASSA.TEMPO is a private residence set on a hillside in Montefano, Italy. Designed by Michele Gambato, it recovers the orthography of local rural houses, exploring a strong conceptual architectural design that connects the surrounding landscape with the intimate, domestic space through oversized windows and abstract openings. The theme of nature preserves and emphasizes the connection with the outside, as well as the necessary degree of permeability in space and time.
This house, located in Nahariya, Israel, was designed by Ronnie Friedman in 2020. The clean design style provides maximum privacy and separation from the street due to the dense nature of the surrounding neighborhood. This house features an enclosed façade that creates a transitional space to reinforce intimacy and detachment from the street, framing views toward a distant horizon visible from the upper floor.
In 2025, Alexandra Khnykina designed the interiors of a private residence in Trento, Italy, focusing on the living area with kitchen and the sleeping area on the second floor. The project transformed the home’s spaces, blending aesthetics with functionality. Enhancing the warmth of the concrete ceiling texture and integrating meticulous lighting designs elevated the interiors to a refined and timeless level, creating a unique atmosphere throughout the home.
