Interior Design & Styling

The project began as a simple makeover for an already fully furnished apartment on Vicarage Street-some decorative touches, fabrics, atmosphere. But everything changed when the young couple, in the process of reflection, decided to buy the adjacent apartment. That’s how the idea of combining the two spaces and creating a complete new home was born. The challenge was to design a modern, comfortable, and visually coherent space while retaining some elements of the existing interior. This project represents an example of a harmonious transition from simple styling to a complete architectural transformation.

Project Details.

The unified apartment required a complete redesign: only the kitchen-living area was retained, while all other rooms-bedrooms, bathrooms, walk-in closet, study-were redesigned from scratch. The main objective was to make the new part dialogue with the existing part: style, materials and proportions were designed in continuity.
The interiors feature natural materials and an understated color palette. Special attention was paid to the main bathroom, with a freestanding bathtub and Calacatta Capraia marble-effect porcelain stoneware wall tiles. All the furnishings-from cabinets to joinery-were custom made. Tactile combinations of wood, stone and natural fabrics create an elegant and serene atmosphere designed to meet the evolving needs of the family, including the birth of their first child.
