Living Room with a Reading Nook, Cork Flooring and Tatami Flooring Ideas and Designs

Su un attico open space situato in zona Santo Stefano la proprietaria si è affidata a noi per la ristrutturazione totale. Una vista su Bologna e sui colli magnifica! Lo spazio all’interno è diviso su due livelli, distribuiti a partire dall’ingresso su zona soggiorno e camera da letto e sul livello più alto con cucina, bagno, piccola stanza e grande terrazzo di circa 15 mq. Dopo i primi incontri, ci siamo orientati ad uno stile pulito essenziale e con riferimenti alla cultura Giapponese, essendo la proprietaria una grande appassionata. L’idea del progetto nasce proprio dal disegno nell'ambiente dedicato al soggiorno, di una composizione di piastre 120x60 della LEA (collezione waterfall) disposte a formare il modulo del TATAMI. La disposizione da quattro tatami e mezzo è tipica delle stanze per la cerimonia del tè. Il pavimento che lo abbraccia è stato realizzato con il parquet della SALIS (collezione Pret a porter). Lo spazio contenuto e le due falde del tetto inclinate, ha reso necessario il disegno di tutti i mobili al suo interno. Abbiamo realizzato per prima cosa una libreria che divide la zona notte dal soggiorno, e che serve entrambi gli spazi, dove verso la camera crea delle nicchie dove mettere le luci e i libri. Il letto è stato pensato anche come armadio, alto, che permette così di trovare spazio anche dove spesso non si pensa. Rende anche possibile vedere da sdraiati la bellezza di Bologna di notte.. La cucina anch’essa realizzata su misura da Luca di TLG legno, segue il gusto minimale e lineare di tutto lo stile della casa, con legni caldi e che rendono l’ambiente molto accogliente. Il paraschizzi dietro la cucina è sicuramente uno dei pezzi forti della casa, insieme alla cliente abbiamo optato per una piastrella della NOVOCERAM (serie kawaii) con una grafica molto giapponese stile manga che rispecchia il gusto del cliente e che rende il tutto più fresco e leggero. Tra la zona cucina e la zona soggiorno è stato pensato ad un mobile che oltre a dividere, allarga la zona cucina perché è stato realizzata la panca del tavolo cucina, liberando così da un lato spazio e dalla parte del soggiorno diventa una libreria a giorno. Infine il bagno, piccolo ma molto luminoso, viene reso scenografico dalla scelta di una carta da parati della TECNOGRAFICA, serie GINKO nera, adatta alla posa in zone umide tipo box doccia. Una scelta che rende benissimo l’effetto WOW quando si entra nella stanza da bagno. Siamo molto orgogliosi delle scelte che abbiamo fatto insieme alla cliente che si è affidata a noi e speriamo che possa vivere bene per molti anni nel suo bellissimo attico bolognese- giapponese ;)

A charming mix of an extrovert and an introvert. They desire a space that harmoniously blends aspects of their personalities — a place that's perfect for hosting lively parties while still being a soothing retreat to unwind in. They aspire for an environmentally sustainable and energy-efficient home. Plenty of natural light is a must, and they crave a space that's versatile enough to cater to various tasks, yet cleverly designed to provide just the right ambiance. Our lovely clients crave a seamless continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces. They yearn for a space that's not only fashionable and trendy but also feels like a warm embrace, providing them with an oasis of peace and relaxation. In short, they want a space that's eco-friendly, stylish, flexible, and cosy — an ideal blend of all their desires.

The narrow existing hallway opens out into a new generous communal kitchen, dining and living area with views to the garden. This living space flows around the bedrooms with loosely defined areas for cooking, sitting, eating.
