Under the Tuscan sun

In a 19th century palazzo overlooking the church of San Domenico in the historic centre of Prato, a once fragmented and discontinuous environment has found a new, elegant and intimate identity. The dining room at the heart of the project features an equipped wall that also serves as an attractive backdrop for the living area with its clear view of the Basilica.

Black coloured oak wood enhances the warm, welcoming look of the walls, which are finished in the particularly striking shade of Absolute KK 81.

This same colour runs throughout the apartment, providing a uniform setting for a selection of classic and modern ornaments and geometric textiles. The lounge connects naturally to the bedroom area which is finished in deliberately relaxing colours , chosen to produce the sensation of tranquillity desired by the family.
