The condition of the arch was so divided into two fifty percent arches, which highlight the passages from the kitchen to the other rooms: the thought is that of a central place entirely permeable and linked to the rest of the apartment. The sleeping area is composed of a guest bathroom, two single bedrooms and the principal bedroom, finish with an en suite toilet. The floors ended up employed as a suggests to determine and clarify the areas: the most important functions (eating space, living space, examine, bed room) are discovered by herringbone parquet, the connective areas by a neutral colored resin, the thresholds by travertine slabs, the en suite lavatory and the region in entrance of it with geometric cement tiles. The alternative for the general shade palette is oriented in direction of the use of mild and neutral shades for the regions not afflicted by the most critical renovation processes (such as living home, toilet, solitary bedrooms) when the new rooms and the connective areas are described by total and vivid hues, reminescent of the ’80s aesthetic. Colours, elements, and finishes enable build a constant procedure in between the two beforehand independent housing models, generating them understand as a solitary program of areas.”
