SELECTED WORK - FIFTY-SIX

Architecture

Fifty-Six is a stunning renovation of a traditional townhouse in Mosta, Malta. The project is deeply rooted in the Maltese landscape and the soft, warm limestone that characterizes it. By using this stone as the foundation of the project, the design creates a timeless and authentic space that connects the past, present, and future. The architecture of the space emphasizes pure geometries and a neutral, warm colour palette to create a sense of timelessness. The natural local materials and curves add an organic touch to the space, evoking the beauty of the Maltese landscape.

Interior design

In the interior design, the proposal takes inspiration from the local architecture and landscape, as well. The corners of the space are softened and curved, creating an organic and welcoming atmosphere that respects the original essence of the townhouse. The traditional mouldings and skirtings are restored and repurposed as art pieces that add character and charm to the new design. The original arches of the space are translated into vaults that host various services, adding value to the transition between spaces. The furniture and materials selected are organic and natural, contributing to a sense of comfort and protection for the user. The resulting space is the epitome of the concept of “home,” offering a warm and inviting atmosphere that is both authentic and modern.
