The design atelier Eligo Studio has realised a project in a building that in the early 1900s belonged to a family engaged in ironworking and is now the home of Alessia Bossi and Alberto Nespoli, respective co-founders of the creative agency We Are Lovers and of Eligo Studio itself.
The space was already very bright with beautiful antique finishes.
The corridor, in anthracite resin, distributes access to the different rooms: a clear and decisive sign that combines the ancient to the contemporary.
A boundary line between the different spaces, refined by the restoration of the original wooden portals that had been replaced with modern elements.
Even the new large bathroom, with a free-standing tub with classic lines, is played on the contrast between lime-colored surfaces and a resin floor.
The walls of the living room, where the predominant color is white, are finished with lime putty, which gives softness to the environment.
The fireplace, from an early villa of the twentieth century, is the focus around which the decor of the living room is built.
Art and Design coexist in a harmonious way, in a continuous interaction between new elements and icons of the past. From the armchairs by Le Corbusier to the wood sculpture of Mario Ceroli, to custom furniture designed by Eligo Studio.
The iron portal that connects living room and dining room is a scenic element that stands out between the two areas by framing a work by the contemporary artist Lorenzo Vitturi.
