In the bustling heart of Milan, architect Bianca Magi and her team tackled the challenge of transforming a cramped, dreary 21m² apartment into a sleek and functional living space. The clients, with unwavering trust in the team's vision, sought a vibrant home for their daughters in the midst of the city's hustle and bustle. Walls were torn down, natural light was embraced, and distinct areas were carved out to bring a sense of spaciousness to the compact abode. Bianca Magi, the mastermind behind the operation, orchestrated a symphony of design elements to breathe new life into the once dark and cluttered space.
From the moment you step into the revamped apartment, a sense of purpose and style envelopes you. The entrance, defined by a small step and clever storage solutions, sets the tone for what's to come. The kitchen, with its curved walnut wood finish and stainless steel accents, stands as a testament to both form and function. The living room, a versatile oasis of relaxation, features modular elements that can be rearranged at will, a foldable table for convenience, and a shelf storage unit for displaying treasured items. Every nook and cranny has been meticulously planned and optimized for efficiency, with hidden handles and clever storage solutions seamlessly integrated into the design.
As you venture further into the apartment, the sleeping area beckons with its intimate and cozy ambiance, painted in a deep blue hue to create a sense of tranquility. The raised bed allows for additional storage underneath, while a spacious walk-in wardrobe offers ample space for all your sartorial needs. The bathroom, adorned with ruby zellige tiles and floating elements, exudes a sense of luxury and relaxation. Inspired by Japanese design principles, the apartment's unique floor tiles add a touch of artistry and flair to the space. It's a testament to the team's ingenuity and creativity in making the most out of every square inch, creating a sanctuary where one can truly escape the chaos of the outside world.
