FROM INTERIOR DESIGN TO THE CREATION OF A PLACE TO LIVE THAT IS ALSO ‘INTERIOR’ – NOT A SIMPLE PROCESS, BUT ONE THAT IS POSSIBLE
T
o replenish and interiorize space, stopping time. Goals that seem possible in these residences of varying architectural character and geographical location. Part of an intense urban plot, or solitary in the natural landscape, they have been designed as private islands of peace and beauty. Perfect hideaways for ordinary everyday living or extraordinary breaks, they offer all the necessities and pleasures of continual indoor-outdoor interchange, an openness that can be physical, with large gardens and furnished terraces, but also one of viewpoint, with panoramas on the ‘world.’ To connect the beauty of inhabited space with the appeal of the natural or manmade landscape. To have the privilege of stopping time in a private, inner location, made to measure in terms of furnishings, structure and worldview.
