L’intervento su questa abitazione è iniziato con la richiesta da parte del nostro cliente di rendere l’involucro interno, già esistente sia come soffitti che come pavimentazioni, il più luminoso e semplice possibile.
Il primo intervento è stato quello di suggerire la verniciatura delle travi dei soffitti, sia della cucina che della zona notte di colore bianco opaco gesso a poro aperto così da rendere più luminosi gli spazi.

Il secondo intervento è stato quello di rivestire alcune pareti con carta decorativa di Wall&decò per meglio valorizzare i mobili e per rendere invisibili alcuni pannelli d’ispezione che, se lasciati a vista, avrebbero rischiato di rovinato completamente la parete.

Tutto questo, insieme alla scelta delle tende, ha reso possibile ottenere un involucro luminoso e neutro, all’interno del quale siamo riusciti ad inserire un arredo semplice e funzionale, ma di grande carattere e con finiture molto eleganti come la cucina realizzata con particolari color champagne, la zona living in alluminio e vetro laccato e la zona notte, mansardata, dove un locale è stato dedicato ad una cabina armadio realizzata in legno di olmo con ferramenta Champagne.

Il risultato finale è stato molto apprezzato dal nostro cliente e questo grazie all’impegno di tutto il nostro team che, ogni giorno, si impegna per ottenere tutto questo.

Considering the physical, mental, and emotional needs of people, interior designers use human-centered approaches to address how we live today. Creating novel approaches to promoting health, safety, and welfare, contemporary interiors are increasingly inspired by biophilia as a holistic approach to promoting health, safety, and welfare, contemporary interiors are increasingly inspired by biophilia as a holistic approach to design. By definition, interior design encompasses diverse aspects of our environment. The discipline extends to building materials and finishes; casework, furniture.

Biophilia is the idea that humans possess an innate tendency to seek connections with nature. The term translates to ‘the love of living things’ in ancient Greek (philia = the love of / inclination towards), and was used by German-born American psychoanalyst Erich Fromm in The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973), which described biophilia as “the passionate love of life and of all that is alive.” The term was later used by American biologist Edward O. Wilson in his work Biophilia (1984), which proposed that the tendency of humans to focus on and to affiliate with nature and other life-forvms.

Design in Details

In design, we bring characteristics of the natural world into built spaces, such as water, greenery, and natural light, or elements like wood and stone. Encouraging the use of natural systems and processes in design allows for exposure to nature, and in turn, these design approaches improve health and wellbeing. There are a number of possible benefits, including reduced heart rate variability and pulse rates, decreased blood pressure, and increased activity in our nervous systems, to name a few.

Over time, our connections to the natural world diverged in parallel with technological developments. Advances in the 19th and 20th centuries fundamentally changed how people interact with nature. Sheltered from the elements, we spent more and more time indoors. Today, the majority of people spend almost 80-90% of their time indoors, moving between their homes and workplaces. As interior designers embrace biophilia.

Incredible Result

Establishing multi-sensory experiences, we can design interiors that resonate across ages and demographics. These rooms and spaces connects us to nature as a proven way to inspire us, boost our productivity, and create greater well-being. Beyond these benefits, by reducing stress and enhancing creativity, we can also expedite healing. In our increasingly urbanized cities, biophilia advocates a more humanistic approach to design. The result is biophilic interiors that celebrate how we live, work and learn with nature. The term translates to ‘the love of living things’ in ancient Greek (philia = the love of / inclination towards), and was used by German-born American psychoanalyst Erich Fromm in The Anatomy of Human Destru ctiveness (1973).
