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.

philosophy

A complex research which aims to highlight the quality of architecture over any other aspect. We believe that architecture plays a meaningful role in society and that architects should be able to share the beauty they manage to create through their works, in a well mannered and considerate way: free of distractive advertisements and unpleasant commercials. Complesco is therefore a focused platform that wishes to take architecture to the highest level of consideration, believing that an appropriate selection will win over quantitative and generic architecture that is taking over the places we inhabit. Complesco is a tool to stop cheap apathy and indifference, towards a possible future of surrounding beauty.
