An attic with warm and natural colors in an Italian medieval historical center

An attic that enhances natural materials

It is comfortable to enter an environment rich in natural materials, especially when the ceiling is made with exposed wooden beams as they used to build in the past and the spaces are enriched by marble with warm colors.

Obtained from the renovation of a historic building, this attic is a tribute to the use of natural materials and the result is a very welcoming, warm, simple environment but at the same time soaked with a sophisticated atmosphere.

The play of light, the chiaroscuro, the reflection of the marble with the opacity of the wood, the harmonious tones, create an environment full of energy.

THE CALACATTA VAGLI ORO: THE FIL ROUGE OF THE ENVIRONMENT

Valuable material used above all in interior and exterior design projects, Calacatta Vagli Oro is the absolute protagonist of this project and represents a sort of “fil rouge” that crosses the house in the various areas, from the living room to the bathroom, through the kitchen.

This Italian marble, extracted in the Carrara quarries, whose dominant color is white, is embellished with intense golden veins of a rather rare warm tone.

THE LIVING AND KITCHEN AREA

Calacatta Vagli Oro is used generously in the kitchen area for the base, with stunning open-book, top and back splash. A choice of minimal style but elaborated at the same time which makes the environment ideal for fitting with other light decorations and furnishing elements.

In the living room and in the kitchen, the shades are kept in harmony with each other to give a subtle continuity between the rooms and to enhance the open space. The use of Calacatta Vagli Oro as a top in the furniture, the coffee table and the table create a harmonious connection.

The choice of materials affects how to furnish a living area. An original idea to highlight this space is to create a contrast between the glossy surfaces of the marble and the opaquer ones of the wood.

This contrast gives movement to the environment, highlights the spaces and enhances the most original corners.

THE BATHROOM

In the bathroom, natural stone blends perfectly with the brass of the accessories and the wooden beams, creating a warm environment.

Natural materials, due to their characteristics, are very resistant and intended to last a long time, which is why it is very important to choose them carefully, especially when it comes to a piece of furniture that is used frequently in daily life.
