Milan,Penthouse steps from Duomo

Located in the historical center of Milan, in a modern building from the 70s, this apartment enjoys a view over the roofs thanks to the small terraces that surround the penthouse. The goal of the project was to keep the original plan and revisit the layout of the rooms and the overall decoration. A real challenge considering that the apartment was in a tremendous state, due to years of neglect. The premise had to accomodate a couple with a child and their furnishing, including a fully equipped kitchen, coming from the previous apartment. The moodboard developed specifically for the project features classic elements combined with modern ones. The colour palette mixes neutral tones, like taupe for the walls of the...

Luxembourg,Progress so far

T he project started last September. Our clients asked for an elegant, modern interior. Neutral palette with some hues of colour, subtle and soft.

The project is still in progress, but we wish to share a few 3D visualizations so far.  

Incredibly simple, extremely sylish. This is our way to design.

Luxembourg,New@Media Bay

Where the treetops embrace the Kirchberg, this is where Media Bay is. A total of six buildings with modern office space, top quality commercial space and high standard housing. All the apartments feature large windows with panoramic views. A young couple of professionals has asked SoFarSoNear to design a new under construction 2 bedroom apartment, following all the necessary steps from the development to the decoration. Our usual way of working starts from the overall plan, including the electrical plan layout. The next step, which we consider crucial, is to develop the moodboards, that reflect the personality and wishes of our client and finally guide the overall style of the house.

Mood, Rituals

T he focus is on ourselves and our need to re-establish our ties and connections. Never before have we perceived this sense of belonging as an indirect response to climate change, the escalation of global conflict and a rise in protectionism. For this trend we have identified two moods.Rituals: the familiar comfort of rituals, both spiritual and everyday is a way to make sense of our world and reassure in difficult times. The colour palette features more subtle colours and aged materials that celebrate longevity. Source: Colourhive, Heimtextile, Li Edelkoort, Nelly Rodi.
