A home for livers: apartment renovation in Como
When approaching a residential interior design project, we always begin with the people. Their habits, their expectations, and their memories shape the way we work. Every home is unique because the way it welcomes us has a deep impact on our daily lives—whether we realize it or not.
This apartment renovation in Como gave us the chance to create a space that is both personal and contemporary. Located in a semi-detached villa near the lake, the apartment belonged to S, our client, who wanted to restore and personalize his section of the house. The interiors still reflected their original late-1980s layout and finishes.
A tailored concept with bold identity
We redesigned the entire layout, creating a large wooden cube in the living area. This monolithic volume conceals multiple functions: a kitchen wall, a hallway entrance, bathroom access, and a TV wall. It organizes the space discreetly while adding architectural character.
A custom kitchen with a strong material presence
The heart of this apartment renovation in Como is the custom kitchen, designed around a central cooking island clad in black marble. This time, we set aside our usual vibrant palettes in favor of a more muted, masculine, and impactful look.
It was a wonderful opportunity to rethink domestic living, and we believe the result has genuinely improved the everyday life of the person who now calls this space home.
