In the center of the historic “Fiera Milano” district, overlooking the new public park in the Milan’s CityLife development, Studio Marco Piva has completed the interiors of a private residential apartment. The entrance, featuring a custom-made backlit plasterboard wall, leads to the large living area.

Designed by Marco Piva, the plasterboard has been studied as opposed to the window, an artificial back-lit in contrast with a natural light source. The living area, very spacious and with access to both terraces, is designed to receive guests or relaxing with the family. The simple and functional design achieves a sophisticated and elegant finish, rich in details that emphasize the exclusivity of the overall project. Working closely with the client, the design team undertook a careful chromatic research, selecting contemporary but not invasive colors that would not lose appeal over time. An important element are the two hanging lamps, characterized by a descent of blown glass spheres in which is positioned the light source.
