Shabby chic studio loft

 

A shabby chic style studio loft in Milan with refined furniture and natural materials. Functionality and freshness match together in the design of these interiors with reduced spaces.

Project: Arch. Pierluigi Fasoli
Year: 2015
Site: Milan

In the Navigli area in Milan, overlooking the internal courtyard of a flat complex with railing housing units, the project of the architect Pierluigi Fasoli comes to life. A studio loft with functionality and freshness. The naturalness of Rosenheim oak meets the refinement of shapes and the attention to detail of the furniture with a shabby chic taste. The kitchen perfectly represents this accurate choices with retro-style metal handles combined with simple lines in Rosenheim oak. The satin steel countertop accompanies the doors of the slate wall units giving an industrial touch, also recalled in the choice of stools for the snack top. The white ceramic wall tiles adorn with style a functional kitchen that does not give up on style preciousness. The classic window frames of the French white wooden windows coherently fits in this room.

The living area consists of a huge corner sofa with a support table placed on the front, which is extremely simple and rough in the finishes. An illuminated display cabinet and storage elements on the backdrop use of all the voids in the room. This is how the window frames host a small bookcase with a glass door in the upper part and the shoulder of the sofa transforms into a container volume with a door opening system on the top. Functionality finds its maximum expression in the service cupboard that connects the kitchen to the day. The trapezoidal shape of this furniture creates a fresh and light dynamism, allowing the use of both full-height doors and sideboards with shelves.

The bedroom occupies the mezzanine part of the studio apartment, opening up the view of the entire room, while the bathroom is hidden below in a special room recreated inside the apartment. A bathroom with a refinement expressed in the material choice of white marble, which does not give up shabby chic details with the shaped oak wall unit.
