The harmony of delicate nuances


The Harmony of Delicate Nuances
The generous brightness of this penthouse in the city center is softened and reflected by the choice of neutral tones and delicate nuances, which flow seamlessly from the airy open space into the more intimate and secluded night area, enveloping it in a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The space unfolds in a living area with a dual soul, where the kitchen and living room engage in perfect harmony. A bookcase with inclined oak uprights in a medium-tone stain and shelves in burnished brass-effect sheet metal acts as a visual filter at the entrance, introducing the material palette that defines the entire apartment.
Beyond this visual threshold, the living area welcomes a spacious corner sofa facing a suspended TV unit in oak, enriched with slender brass inlays. More discreetly positioned, the kitchen embraces three sides of the space, with a central island featuring an integrated snack counter. The elegant grain of the medium-stained oak columns alternates with a vertically cut, backlit glass cabinet, enhancing the depth and rhythm of the environment. Functional opening mechanisms, such as vertical sliding systems, maximize space efficiency, while refined champagne-colored painted iron handles add a touch of sophistication.
The base units and central island are adorned with a bronzed metallic lacquer finish, whose luminous reflections create infinite shades and depth. Complementing this, Dolomiti marble extends from the worktop to the back wall, accentuated by a strip of light that aligns with the geometric ceiling track. The same marble reappears on the partition wall leading to the night area, reinforcing the visual and material continuity.
Here, delicate nuances take center stage, enveloping the master bedroom in a soft and soothing light. The lacquered bookcase is enriched with metallic finishes, as are the bedside tables, while the walk-in closet reveals itself through a lightweight structure with open shelving and hanging rails. The transition area is fitted with a niche unit featuring bronzed mirror doors, echoing the aesthetic of the entrance storage unit and enhancing the perception of space.
In the bathrooms, beauty meets functionality in an essential yet refined language: metallic surfaces, clean lines, and meticulously curated details create a timeless elegance. Even the laundry area reflects this ethos, distinguished by functional elements with a minimalist aesthetic, crafted in matte white lacquer.
