There are projects where architecture seems to whisper rather than speak. Where lines don't shout, but flow lightly, essential, and luminous. This apartment was born from the client's clear intention to create a space where white was not an absence, but a promise, where gray didn't weigh, but connected, where everything found its place, naturally and modestly.

The starting point is a rigorous color palette: white, concrete gray, and black. Neutral yet vibrant tones, capable of reflecting and modulating light, which in this project becomes the true protagonist. The floor, a large textured carpet of concrete-effect porcelain stoneware, flows seamlessly from one room to the next, like a silent thread that stitches the different spaces together. Above it, pale walls, light ceilings, and carefully calibrated openings. Everything is designed to allow room for breathing, light, and the act of living.

Artificial lighting transforms the scene. Recessed LED strips create clean lines in the ceilings, running parallel to the walls and traversing the volumes. They don't impose themselves, but rather direct the gaze, almost like lines drawn in pencil on a sheet of paper. The suspended, floating chandeliers, composed of transparent spheres that capture and amplify the light, are sculptural yet lightweight, like air bubbles reflected in the white ceiling.

Project Gallery

The bathroom exudes the same sobriety, with continuous smoky gray stoneware surfaces, clean lines, and suspended furnishings. The grazing light from the backlit mirror touches the walls like a veil, and the matte black faucets add a touch of almost Zen-like simplicity. Everything is pared down to the essentials, but nothing is left to chance.

This apartment is, ultimately, a declaration of love for full emptiness, for calm, for restraint. It's a project that doesn't chase trends, but builds a silent grammar of light, material, and detail. A place where each day can begin like a blank page to be written slowly, in pencil, living.
