Project Description
The designer used light and dark granites with different phrases that echo with the three-stage elements of Milan’s traditional architectures—the coronation, the body, and the ground floor; also, irregular straight and horizontal window designs, a sense of elegance is outlined, while metal lattices are used to embellish and create a visual depth of field from shallow to deep. the first floor is equipped with a 4-meter high ceiling to deliver an expansive, elegant yet low-key luxurious. The walls are applied with a massive amount of terrazzo, bringing vividly to the light-grey-colored area; meanwhile, the connections of the copper bars could be the guidance of direction and a ceiling-decoration that allows users to transform their emotions. Users’ living experiences are crucial for the designer; therefore, the interior spaces above the second floor are also built with 3.4-meter-high ceilings. The sky garden adopted a cyber-physical method, accommodating hundreds of plantings that echo with balcony garden designs in the Milan apartments.
