Residential _ Interior Project | Mantova, Italy

Concept Design

“Design is not just about aesthetics; it encompasses all the senses.“

Concept Development of three apartments in Mantova.

As you step inside this renovate former Hotel, there is a sense of being transported out of the city and into a space of calming neutrals, soft furnishings and warm textures. Inheriting its name from its rich color tonality, Vanilla Crush is the perfect backdrop to busy city life. All the three apartments are very similar to each other and they all have an understated palette rooted in modern minimal design which brings a feeling of serenity, with fashion imprints which recharge before the new day.

The concept is balancing warm textural elements – natural timbers and marbles – with colder metals and textured glass creating a sense of depth heightened by tactile forms and soft furnishings. Plus, is deliberately avoided harsh architectural lighting, opting for minimal wall lights and lamps, to ensure the spaces maintained their ambience even during the evenings.

“Upon entering the apartment, you will feel as if you are in another world”.
