Turnkey renovation in Vicenza

We open the entrance door of the house and a particular staircase covered in metal-effect porcelain stoneware leads us from the entrance to the upper floor, where the various rooms of the house develop.

During the renovation we gave new life to this structural element by replacing the old ceramic with a more resistant and high-performing material such as porcelain stoneware, which thanks to its variegated effect gives modernity and its own brightness to the environment, the light in fact hits the surface reflecting in a different way and thus highlighting new details.

The steps with a 45° joint between tread and riser rise harmoniously until they reach the oak wood flooring, an elegant parquet that accompanies us throughout the house and envelops us once we reach the first floor.

There is nothing that warms a space more than wood!

We replaced the old floor with an oak parquet characterized by different light and dark tones that give liveliness to the various rooms. The choice to opt for a very variegated wood, rich in clearly visible grains and different shades, and an Italian herringbone laying pattern allowed us to give shape and movement to spaces that appear elegant and refined.

The combination of this natural material with the industrial metal effect, with which we covered the entrance staircase and the kitchen, gives life to an unusual contrast that makes this house even more distinctive and contemporary.

The first environment that welcomes us in this home is the spacious open space kitchen composed of a large central island and an equipped wall, two furnishing elements that play on light and dark, a timeless contrast that never loses its contemporaneity.

The metal-effect porcelain stoneware in dark tones, the same encountered in the staircase, is also used to cover the surface of the central monolith and that of the base on which the induction hob rests. To this, the bright matte white lacquer of the tall units and drawers contrasts, conveying a sense of lightness and order.

Our clients wanted to have a large area where they could dedicate themselves with creativity to the preparation of meals, it is therefore for logistical reasons that the island exclusively hosts the integrated sink, a design choice that allows to leave the remaining worktop free for cutting, chopping, and transforming food. An unusual choice indeed was to place the induction hob in the wall of tall units, recessed into the bases, thus separating it from the central structure.

Although today integrated hobs with built-in extractor systems are preferred, in this kitchen we wanted to reuse the existing systems and install an external hood in matte anthracite black finish, a texture that blends perfectly into the vertical cladding in metal-effect porcelain stoneware.

In this kitchen it certainly cannot be said that space is lacking!

We now enter the bathroom of the living area, mainly used by the man of the house, where the key word is: consistency of materials.

The wooden floor that accompanied us in all the rooms now gives way in this space to a porcelain stoneware we already know: by observing the photos you can notice in fact that it is the same metal-effect porcelain stoneware that we saw previously, used to cover the staircase and as a complement to the kitchen. In this bathroom the 120x120 cm tiles have been used for the flooring and the wall cladding, where they create a strong and characterful background for the sanitary ware and the vanity unit.

The shower, completely made in porcelain stoneware, in which even the shower tray has been clad on site with the same large slabs, is equipped with a detail that can no longer be missing in any bathroom we design: the functional niche, created to comfortably hold all the products needed to enjoy a relaxing, or energizing, shower.

However, we have not yet told you that this small bathroom also serves as a laundry room, the necessary elements have been hidden inside specially designed colored cabinets whose bright green shade gives a touch of liveliness and vibrancy to the space.

The heart of the project of the second bathroom, instead, is wellness.
Our clients, in fact, expressed their desire to have a space where they could regenerate and dedicate themselves peacefully to personal care and we, to fulfill this dream, placed a comfortable bathtub alongside a functional shower, thus making the most of all the available space.

If you look carefully at the photos you can notice how the materials and the tones of the finishes also contribute to creating an overall relaxing atmosphere that conveys peace and tranquility: the floor and the wall coverings are in concrete-effect porcelain stoneware in a soft taupe color, interrupted only by the intense cerulean color of the solid-color porcelain stoneware that fills the two backlit niches.

The suspended cabinet, which houses a double integrated washbasin with very soft and rounded shapes made of corian, thanks to its light lacquer recalls the tones of the coverings and contributes to creating a typical spa atmosphere.

Thank you for reading our story of this renovation! We hope we have conveyed the enthusiasm with which we took care of the finishes and furnishings of this home, following the renovation with the turnkey formula.
