This renovation transforms a historic Italian apartment, long uninhabited, with an inefficient room-to-room layout. A new wall recesses the bedroom, creating a connecting corridor and integrated storage. Soft pink walls and ceiling visually enlarge the narrow space while preserving its intimate character. A hidden door concealed within concrete cladding separates the bathroom without disrupting the aesthetic. A custom kitchen integrates seamlessly into a TV unit, culminating in a nook facing the restored original fireplace. Northern European minimalism meets Italian craftsmanship throughout.
