The opportunity is to rethink a 1970s apartment designed by Filippo Monti, architect.
The most significant element of the apartment is the large outdoor area: approximately 40 m2 divided between a loggia and a solarium. The focus is entirely on the relationship between inside and outside and how to best attenuate this transition: therefore the greenhouse is the constant image that guides the project in both general and detailed choices.
The pre-existing exit step is brought inside to establish a hierarchy between the functions of the living area. The distinctive features of the architect Monti are confirmed but also borrowed elsewhere. The full-height mahogany doors were then restored but also extended to define the equipped kitchen wall and a boiserie. The same applies to the two-tone marble flooring, restored on the outside and brought inside to characterize the covering of the main bathroom.
