Interior DR
Interior design project for a rural house in the
Venetian countryside, built in the early 1900s
and restored in the early 2000s. The project,
designed for the functional needs and
aesthetic tastes of the client, enhances the
recycled materials used in the restoration, as
the larch beams and the original structural
walls in stone and brick, with the use of
simple and elegant materials and shades,
applied to pure geometric shapes.
The entrance space of the building overlooks
a porch and acts as a filter that separates
the living room from the kitchen and allows
access to the sleeping area via the wooden
staircase.
The colors and materials used for the
new elements are reduced to an essential
vocabulary and specially designed to make
the space bright. The paving surface, which
extends across the entire ground floor
is made of polished oriental stone and
becomes the neutral base on which the
various furnishing elements are inserted.
The dining / kitchen area is characterized
by the large white kitchen and the solid oak
table, the latter also used for the kitchen
base and the chest.
The living room is characterized by a
background of OSB panels backlit by a led
strip that gives a soft and indirect light to the
room. These panels, placed along the entire
length of the historic stone wall, rest on the
long concrete shelf that acts as a TV base.
On the upper floor there is the master
bedroom where the palette of the materials
used on the ground floor is resumed, while
the bathroom is covered with gray stone
effect stoneware, also used on the floor
to obtain a continuity of materials. The
mono-materiality of this space is only
interrupted by the long wooden shelf which,
accentuating the longitudinality of this space,
extends towards the large niche shower.
