Alcuni dettagli di uno dei nostri progetti più recenti: l’interior design di un antico convento, oggi trasformato in un raffinato albergo di lusso nel cuore della campagna abruzzese.

L’intervento ha coinvolto la progettazione e la realizzazione su misura di arredi, complementi, tende, tappeti e corpi illuminanti, con un’attenzione costante all’equilibrio tra memoria del luogo e sensibilità contemporanea.

Numerosi elementi preesistenti sono stati recuperati, reinterpretati e valorizzati attraverso un accurato lavoro di restyling, restituendo loro una nuova identità senza alterarne il fascino originario.

Le tappezzerie, anch’esse disegnate su misura, sono state realizzate con pregiate stoffe inglesi, selezionate e ordinate espressamente per questo progetto.

Un racconto di eleganza discreta, artigianalità e rispetto per la storia. A selection of details from one of our most recent projects: the interior design of a former convent, now transformed into a refined luxury hotel in the heart of the Abruzzo countryside.

The project involved the bespoke design and creation of furniture, decorative pieces, curtains, rugs and lighting, with a constant focus on achieving a harmonious balance between the heritage of the building and a contemporary sensibility.

Many of the original elements were carefully restored, reinterpreted and enhanced through a thoughtful restyling process, giving them a new identity while preserving their authentic charm.

The upholstery was also custom-designed and crafted using fine English fabrics, selected and ordered exclusively for this project.

A story of understated elegance, craftsmanship and respect for history.

📸 Construction-site shots from the renovation of an apartment in the heart of Rome, just steps away from Via dei Coronari.

The main goal of the project was to strip the spaces back from all the layers added over the years — floors, wall coverings, and various additions — to rediscover the simplicity and authenticity of the original rooms.

For the flooring, we chose a light natural-finish terracotta, while the walls were finished with a raw plaster and light tones for the ceilings.
The doors were decorated by taking inspiration from the original colors, uncovered through careful paint sampling.

In the bathrooms, we kept the same clean aesthetic but with a more contemporary touch: red accents for the shower niches or cabinets, paired with reclaimed materials such as the iconic “Plasmon” tiles and blue ceramics used inside the shower.

📸 Scatti dal cantiere della ristrutturazione di un appartamento nel cuore di Roma, a due passi da via dei Coronari.

Il principale obiettivo del progetto è stato quello di liberare gli ambienti dagli strati aggiunti nel tempo — pavimenti, rivestimenti e varie superfetazioni — per ritrovare la semplicità e l’autenticità originali della casa.

Per il pavimento abbiamo scelto un cotto chiaro a finitura naturale, mentre sulle pareti è stato applicato un intonaco grezzo e colori neutri per i soffitti.
Le porte sono state decorate ispirandosi alle tonalità originali, individuate tramite saggi cromatici.

Nei bagni abbiamo mantenuto la stessa linea pulita, ma con un tocco più contemporaneo: rosse le nicchie doccia o gli armadi, abbinati a materiali di recupero come le storiche mattonelle “Plasmon” o le ceramiche azzurre utilizzate per la doccia.
