Ermanno, Monaco

A soft, muted palette layered in composition, feel and function. The brief was for spaces that felt spacious and calming — an escape from the pace of the world outside.

The furniture is sculptural in form, with comfort paramount, arranged to encourage fluidity between rooms. Nothing pretentious or showy — an elegant curation of objects to create a home. Neutral tones are enlivened with a mix of materials and textures, and statement pieces that elevate the space without announcing themselves.

A limewash finish across every wall and architectural lighting in place of artwork complete the effect — texture and light doing the work that ornament usually does.
