OrigaMI Apartment / A I M

September 10, 2024 Anna Dumitru 0

In the heart of Milan, the renovation project of an apartment represents a balance between architectural tradition and contemporary living. In fact, the intervention aimed to enhance the historical elements of the architectural envelope, such as wooden and plaster frames, the original marble fireplace, and the typical symmetries of historic Milanese architecture; while at the same time integrating a contemporary and functional design into the interiors inspired by Scandinavian and Japanese design. This offers a relaxing and serene environment, characterized by clean lines through the use of ephemeral and light partitions, almost reminiscent of screens, and natural and pure materials with a palette of neutral and warm colors, with particular attention to the tactile qualities of natural materials and a passion for craftsmanship. This contrast between traditional containers and modern content creates a fascinating dialogue, where history and modernism coexist harmoniously.

It forms the threshold to nature in the west and, together with the residential building in the north, defines the central spinning mill square. The concept and name are derived from the turbine—a machine rotating around a central axis, all-encompassing and in motion.
