A crystal heart for the Hanoi Penthouse

 

Italian customed furnishings blend with Vietnamese taste and tradition in this luxury Penthouse in Hanoi. A luminous crystal heart fits between the three panoramic levels of a prestigious skyscraper on West Lake.

Project: CLS Architects

Site: Hanoi

A crystal heart with polished steel profiles fits into the rooms on three levels of this Vietnamese Penthouse. A luminous heart capable of trapping light and external nature to bring it inside this luxurious home. This is the fulcrum of the CLS Architects project, around which the various rooms of the house are placed. A combination of customed furnishings scrupulously made by our wood craftsmen and traditional Vietnamese construction techniques. An eclectic environment in which the western and eastern worlds find their harmony between highly distinctive design pieces and essential furnishings.

So here is an outdoor table in a terrace with bamboo cane in black lacquered wood that shows in its center a glossy red lacquered star. The same material is also used in the full-height library with rigorous geometric lines. The leather upholstery of the doors in the bedroom with treated brass inserts has a warmer impact. A constant experimentation on the finishes and related treatments that required attention and preciousness in detailing each piece of furniture.

Brightness for a classic villa

 

A classic style villa in which contemporary furnishings fits harmoniously giving further brightness. Bright profiles in warm tones are hidden in the furniture with essential lines.

Project: Modulor
Year: 2011
Site: Colognola

An elegant and refined house, whose architectural lines highlight a classic taste. From the rounded profiles of the false ceiling to the choice of dark wood furniture and traditional graphics, everything refers to the classic style. Working by inserting contemporary furnishings does not mean changing its taste, but rather underlining it by creating refined stylistic contrasts. From the entrance you immediately notice the dining table, a real style jewel. A plan with geometric motifs supported by important shaped legs in stone. A braided chandelier with a retro taste accompanies it.

Then the view opens to the living room, where the back wall certainly occupies a privileged role. With its shaped stone fireplace, it recalls the traditional houses where the hearth occupied a central position. Two niches with custom shelves are placed side by side and symmetrically arranged. Its medium gray background color recalls the shades of the furnishings. Even the TV cabinet that supports them on the adjacent wall is in the same shade, but with a glossy finish. This, reflecting the light from the opposite window, increases the general brightness of the room. Between bright shelves with recessed warm lighting and antique furniture a corner of light is recognizable. It is a full-height bookcase with a central niche and depth equipped with shelves. The essential and contemporary lines delicately conform to the environment, making the desk in dark waxed wood with classic rounded lines prevailing.

Customed country style


From the American farmhouses, the country style arrives in this kitchen with a modern reinterpretation that reflects the personality of its inhabitants.

Project: Modulor
Year: 2008
Site: Bergamo

The country style of overseas farmhouses knows no limits and it also lands in Bergamo. A bespoke reinterpretation that responds to the tastes and personality of its young owner. An extremely detailed kitchen. Wall units and doors bring knobs with a unique design and opening mechanism, with a retro taste. These are combined with the skirting boards that leave a central void framed by two shaped feet. Shape that recalls both the kitchen countertop in a warm light shade, and in the shaping of the extractor fan. In fact, the upper part of the latter has a trapezoidal shape enriched in the final part with a profile that can also accommodate ladles and kitchen tools. The extremely characterizing hand-drawn kitchen curtain acts as a closing door for the shelves below the sink.

The upper wall units, as well as the lower doors and drawers, have decorative strips along all its surfaces. By alternating shelves with wall units in matt lacquered MDF and textured glass display cabinets, the dynamism of this kitchen is completed. A modern reinterpretation is undoubtedly found in the chromatic choice that combines the traditional cream white with a pastel gray-blue able to give freshness to a strongly characterized environment.

Between classic and contemporary

A renovated villa that maintains its rigorous and classic style without renouncing contemporary elements able to give lightness and brightness.

Project: Modulor
Year: 2005
Site: Gorle

 
The match of classic and contemporary expresses its harmony in the interiors of this residence in Gorle. Starting from the living area which also incorporates an important dining table, to move on to the completely contemporary kitchen which recalls for the chromatic choice, the furnishing of the living room.

Two large windows provide natural lighting in the living room, whose warm tones of polished wooden floor are combined with the cream-white painting of all walls. A match that allows a warm taste of the room. The soften the tones is a silver-gray velvet sofa which is also combined with a pouf of the same material with a glass table. Modern style armchairs in plum-purple colour in colour range, in order to balance the perception of the environment. The inserted furnishings are essential in the design lines, but their pantographed handles are a reference to the classic style of the living area. Classic and contemporary are combined in this environment not only for the choice of style furniture but above all in the attention to detail of each of them. The medium gray shades in glossy lacquer are the TV cabinet, that occupies the void under the stairs and the vertical containing element that faces it. This is flanked by a white glossy lacquered chest of drawers that fills the part below the window, underlining its brightness. At the two ends of the same wall shelves with an important profile take place. One of them incorporates the support surface that frames the radiator. On the side, this room houses the dining area, with an important dark wooden table. To identify this area is also the lowered and spotlight false ceiling, with medium gray spatula finish. On the side wall, alongside the access to the kitchen, there is a second medium gray vertical container element and a backlit paneling.

The kitchen instead responds to an extremely contemporary setting. Arranged on the corner, it consists of a full-height part which holds the double-door refrigerator and recessed ovens. The countertop occupies the remaining part and then develops in the adjacent wall. With warm tones, it acts as a bright and chromatic interlude between the lower part in medium gray and the white wall units. The difference between the two components is also visible for the material choice of keeping the upper wall units in glossy white lacquer, as in the living area, and the remaining medium gray volumes treated opaque in order to create an elegant contrast.
