If Rome is the Eternal City, Milan is the city of now — of all that’s hot in style as well as fashion. though it’s found in the city’s historic centre, this price-upon-request penthouse has been made over with the latest in both style worlds. Let’s begin the week with a tour of the three-storey space.
The giant terrace — big sufficient to be split into three areas spread over two levels — is what very first caught my eye about this listing. Sure, you might go to the close-by Parco Sempione as well as picnic, or you might dine al fresco on your own park-like patio. keep the fuchsia hue of that table in mind; we’ll be seeing it once again later.
You climb to the fifth-storey terrace with a glass-enclosed living room, skirting the sculptural contemporary sectionals on the way. I like the wood slats on the gallery wall at right, which make the greenhouse-like area feel like a genuine room, as well as the potted plants, which assist produce the airy greenhouse feel in the very first place. less wonderful is that white portal, which seems to belong to the stairs however is, oddly, a speed or two from the actual steps.
Continuing downstairs, here’s the dining space on the apartment’s primary floor. (The kitchen, TV room, gym, primary suite, as well as ‘service area’ are likewise on this floor.) I just can’t get over the combination of the lacquered orange cupboard with the stone-cold floor as well as somewhat more organic wishbone chairs.
And here’s that fuchsia again, spread around the floor as well as even running up one wall. (It even continues onto the floor of an outside dining area, as though its brightness just can’t be contained.) The cupboards as well as kitchen area fixtures are so uniformly smooth as well as contemporary that I half suspect they were just carted over after style Week one year.
This shot of one of the six bedrooms doesn’t provide a extremely great concept of the room’s proportions or layout, however provides a gorgeous view of that grainy paneling. It truly makes the area feel cosy, even snug, despite the crisp bed linen as well as white beams overhead.
What do you think? Is this Milan area your style?
