PICTURED The East living room area: two more columns ha been added to the two concrete pillars, once hidden by internal walls: homage to Giorgio de Chirico's metaphysical paintings. Tiber river and Ara Pacis are just under the windows. / NELLA FOTO L'area Est del soggiorno: due colonne in muratura leggera con piccoli archi sono state aggiunte ai due preesistenti pilastri di cemento, un tempo nascosti da pareti interne: il richiamo è alla metafisica delle viste di de Chirico. Il fiume Tevere e l'Ara Pacis sono proprio sotto le finestre. / THE PROJECT Our client wanted a town home from where he could enjoy the beautiful Ara Pacis and Tevere view, “purified” from traffic noises and lights. Interior design had to contrast the surrounding ancient landscape, in order to mark a pointbreak from surroundings. We had to completely modify the general floorplan, making space for a large, open living (150 mq, 1.600 sqf). We added a large internal infinity-pool in the middle, completed by a high, thin waterfall from he ceiling: such a demanding work awarded us with a beautifully relaxing hall, where the whisper of water offers space to imagination... The house has an open italian kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. / IL PROGETTO Il nostro cliente desiderava una casa di città, da cui godere della splendida vista di Ara Pacis e Tevere, "purificata" dai rumori e dalle luci del traffico. Il design degli interni doveva contrastare il paesaggio antico circostante, al fine di segnare un punto di rottura con l'esterno. Abbiamo dovuto modificare completamente la planimetria generale, creando spazio per un ampio soggiorno aperto (150 mq, 1.600 mq). Abbiamo aggiunto una grande piscina a sfioro interna, nel mezzo del soggiorno, completata da un'alta e sottile cascata, con un velo d'acqua che scende dolcemente dal soffitto. Un lavoro così impegnativo ci ha premiato con ambienti sorprendentemente rilassanti, dove il sussurro dell'acqua offre spazio all'immaginazione ... Una cucina italiana contemporanea, separata dal soggiorno da una vetrata mobile curva, 2 camere da letto e 3 bagni completano il progetto.

When I was initially contacted by the homeowners, it was for paint color selection, space planning and placement of artwork and accessories. We began by lightening up the Main Level because natural light was an issue. The Living Room is where the couple spends most of their time in the winter so we needed to make sure this space functioned well for them. They had previously purchased a conversation sofa and chairs and an ottoman. We moved the television which opened up the fireplace for flanking the chairs and ottoman. Conversation sofas are interesting, but you have to have the right spot because they do not work well floating in a space. We nestled theirs in the L-shaped corner. The homeowners did purchase an upholstered ottoman and rug through us to help finish off the space. Abby and I loved working with their art collection – most from local artisans.

This lounge is the heart of the family home and although well used it had not been updated in many years and the client needed a space to feel relaxed but inspired. The dark walls and woodwork created a cocoon feel adding the feeling of relaxation. My client required somewhere that reflected and reminded her of past holidays and future plans of places to visit. This is seen in the moroccan influenced fireplace tiles and oriental feel to the wallpaper design. The wood fire surround is existing but given a fresh colour and patterned tiles it become the focus in the space. More photos of this project to follow.

The living room breaks all rules of design, mixing pieces from different eras and design perspectives. In total however, the composition is a direct reflection of the owners' distinct and discerning interests. Its fearlessness makes it that much more personal.

An italian kitchen, in white wood and polished steel, is closed by a curved Dorma glass wall, that can be completely folded on the left. Blue leds in the kitchen give a relaxing light tone for the night.
