Studied contrasts, a minimalist design where color creates scenes through soft yet characterful tones: a design alchemy that dares with grace and defines a refined concept of style.<\/h4>\n

In Milan, within a complex designed by the architect, designer, and urban planner Luigi Caccia Dominioni<\/a>, Studio Fal\u00f9 \u2013 in collaboration with GAM GruppoArchitettiMilano \u2013 has revolutionized the living area<\/strong> of a 200 sqm single-family home by using surfaces and materials in an unconventional way. The 100 sqm subject to renovation have been redefined starting from a central multifunctional white volume<\/strong>, capable of creating a measured yet intriguing rhythm of geometries and spaces.<\/p>\n

On one side, this block “tries to enclose” the staircase leading to the sleeping area, leaving two oak wood steps scenically exposed; on the other, it conceals (and reveals) the kitchen area, consisting of an island with an induction cooktop, a pantry wall with columns, and a base unit equipped for the sink area. In addition to the volumes, the rhythm is marked by the alternation of smooth and more textured surfaces; the harmonious succession of neutral and matte shades, warm and reassuring tones, and full-color accents like the one framing the staircase with an original optical effect<\/span>.<\/p>\n

On the left, the contrasting tone of the staircase frames it, creating a scenic effect; on the right, a detail of the kitchen where soft colors and natural wood interact in a common sense of style.<\/em>

The kitchen features a material design, simple yet elegant, rich in custom details.<\/em>

Skillful alchemy of materials and colors<\/strong> combined with plays of recesses and protrusions also on the main wall of the living area. A full-height custom-made unit transforms from an entrance wardrobe to a storage bench for the dining area, then back to a storage closet with an integrated “laboratory niche” designed for the recreational activities of the little ones. In the niche, entirely covered in oak, there are pull-out storage elements that can also serve as comfortable seats.<\/p>\n

The same aesthetic dynamic characterizes the entire living area, from the kitchen to the area designed for the children.<\/em>

The focal point of the wall is the changeable cladding that creates a three-dimensional texture<\/strong>: a scaled surface that reveals different facets and color gradations depending on how the light hits it. The search and contrast of materials continue in the bathroom: the plaster is colored terracotta, while the tiles with contrasting grout feel and look slippery, almost fluid.<\/p>\n

The choice of furniture and accessories \u2013 the table and chairs in comforting oak wood, an unusual lacquer red seat, the m\u00e9lange fabrics of the upholstery \u2013 perfectly reflect the international yet deeply rooted tradition of Studio Fal\u00f9, founded by Linda Greco and Ela Nandez Langenegger, along with designer Silvia Marlia.<\/p>\n

An aesthetic and conceptual connection between the claddings in the living room and bathrooms.<\/em>

The lighting design also follows the philosophy of the entire renovation: the light points (spotlights, wall lamps, floor lamps) are designed and placed to recreate intimate and cozy domestic spaces<\/strong>. There is no extravagance in the choice of lighting fixtures, selected in shades of white and gray and with clean lines that seem to recall the basic geometric shapes of wooden building blocks children play with.<\/p>\n
