House on Etna in Italy by TUTTIARCHITETTIFriday, April 6th, 2018Article source: TUTTIARCHITETTI In the daytime being caught is the sky, a portion of blue sky that rocks the room. At night, the room looks at the stars. The wooden shingles surround the house, including the “chambre”. Trees crawl the house apart from the room, which protrudes away the trees, releasing the only cloud of sky above it. It happens that the color of the trees, crossing the leaves, tinges of green reflecting the blue of the room. The truth is that we do not know what to make of a piece of wood, to the extent that a piece of wood does not distinguish itself from another, it is unclear to us; only the immobile geometry of our dwelling distinguishes it, it changes it in poetry.

Alpin & Stylehotel DIE SONNE in Partschins, Italy by monovolume architecture + designTuesday, March 20th, 2018Article source: monovolume architecture + design The new extension building of Hotel Sonne, realized in 2017, is centrally located on Peter Mitterhofer Place in Partschins. Considered as an independent building, it only is connected by a bridge to the existing hotel. The Rasner House, formerly located at this place, was demolished in 2012 in order to create parking space for the existing Hotel Sonne. The new structure with its location specific saddle roof and the natural wooden elements integrates perfectly into the original village’s structure and provides the building with a traditional appearance. Towards the village center the facade opens up to a bar area with a large glass surface which appears to be a flowing transition to the interior. The south facade is generously glazed which allows a breathtaking panorama to Adige Valley. The modern rooms also feature well-chosen traditional elements which harmonize well with the overall concept of the design.  Image Courtesy © Alex Filz
Palazzo Dami – Piano Nobile in Florence, Italy Zeno Pucci+ArchitectsTuesday, March 20th, 2018Article source: Zeno Pucci+Architects The house is located on the main floor of a historic building in Florence, redesigned in 1735 by the architects Giovacchino Fortini and Ferdinando Ruggieri for Giuliano Dami, favorite of the Grand Duke Giangastone dè Medici. The project of the Zeno Pucci + Architects studio had as main concept, that of revisiting in a contemporary key this historical dwelling, through the insertion of highly modern furnishing elements and a very minimalist style. The atmosphere can be perceived right from the entrance, where, due to the wall decorations, we are catapulted into a historical space well contrasted by the furnishings present. Here then is the perspective escape of the gallery frescoed by Niccolò Pintucci, which portrays ancient landscapes, shielded by architectural whims, partially covered by a wild vegetation. In the large hall, punctuated by a coffered ceiling of 1400 painted with geometric motifs, the furnishings give a modern style in contrast with the historicity of the room, as in the same dining room. In what was once the family chapel, a small study has now been created, but the atmosphere always brings a very sober and discreet modernity. Even the master bedroom follows the mood of the whole house, like the headboard of the stone bed covered in white leather, and the two modern chairs at the foot of the bed. Movements and atmospheres of a time that design the kitchen, where still the modern blends with the old, with the large sink in gray bardiglio that incorporates the color of contrasting decorations on the walls in pietra serena treated in bold ivory, the sideboard in corten iron and backlit opaque glass.
