PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: We stripped down the interiors, only keeping the column, beam and carrier systems. The layout plan is meticulously designed to prioritize flow and accessibility, ensuring that each room seamlessly connects to the next while offering stunning views from every angle. The project offers functional spaces and additional to its user centric design the interiors strike a balance between luxury and moderation. Innovative use of materials, such as marble, glass and sustainable woods, enhances the sense of transparency and connection with outdoors. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The house is located on a hill that has characterized the layout of the plan. The interior design aims to create a tranquil and spacious living space in an area shaped by the differences in elevation. The 1000sqm indoor and 2000 sqm outdoor living area has been designed meticulously to offer residents a unique living experience. TAGS: interior design, residential design, villa design, contemporary interiors, luxury home RESEARCH ABSTRACT: We have renovated a 1990s building into a contemporary residence. In our new material decisions we preferred to use sustainable products. We used natural materials like wood, marble and stone. The residence was completed with an energy efficient innovative smart home technology. CHALLENGE: The house had a heavy atmosphere characterized by classical decoration elements dating back to 90's. Stripping down the interiors, only keeping the column, beam and carrier systems and changing the layout plan of the house was a challenge. We re-designed the plan meticulously to prioritize flow and accessibility, ensuring that each room seamlessly connects to the next while offering stunning views from every angle.
