This small apartment, located in a former industrial space, perfectly embodies the characteristics of an urban loft.
The main functions have been organized along the side parallel to the windows, creating a well-equipped functional strip.

The linear kitchen can be completely isolated thanks to a floor-to-ceiling curtain that, when drawn, transforms the kitchen into a closed volume, interacting with the adjacent constructed volume.
This latter is defined by a masonry and furniture system that hides utility functions and creates a mezzanine, taking advantage of the significant height of the space. It also contains the kitchen columns and the access to a walk-in closet and bathroom, becoming a scenic backdrop that guides the eye.

The choice of this material was influenced by the house’s occupant, a young marble worker who actively participated by providing materials and design ideas for the creation of the various stone elements.
