La Casa Millerighe, Sorrento Italy
A beautiful take on contemporary living, La Casa Millerighe is the renovation of a 100 m2 apartment with a spectacular sea view, formerly a vacation home to spend limited periods of time in, but now a family home for year-round daily living, located in the evocative context of the Sorrento Peninsula. The project features harmonious and evocative design with a geometric, fluid and sleek architectural language, which expresses itself through the refined linearity of the whole and the continuous perspective interplay of its components.
On the first site visit, the living space proved to be ideal for a typical Mediterranean vacation home for rest and relaxation, conviviality and time spent in company: limited common living space, lots of beds and the integrated use of the large panoramic wrap-around terrace. The presence of a square floor plan free on three of its four sides allowed for a total redistribution of the spaces with a strong and constant focus on the dynamic dialogue between the environments and the natural light they receive, an essential priority for their correct functional distribution in the new architectural and design context. The design thus tore up the old floor plan, delineating a space marked by fluid and interactive open-plan areas, where the customer’s various different needs and requirements are answered perfectly thanks to unconventional interpretations of the spaces and custom made-to-measure furniture. The regular and consequent flow of parallel lines emerges as a common thread in the entire design interpretation of the space and its individual rooms and areas, which it suggests and defines through constant reference to geometries, alignments and projections: what emerges is a residence set apart by a fluid and dynamic scheme, inside which the different spaces follow on from each other with continuous connections and visual references, stylistic and chromatic.
