Couple Bedroom Renovation The objective of this project was to renovate a space destinated to relaxation and wellness (located in Aveiro, Portugal). The bedroom created has been prepared to receive a middleaged couple with sophistication and a timeless classicism as they asked. The bed and wardrobe were designed for that specific space, and the materials carefully choosen. An interior with soft and delicate tones, punctuated with a splash of colour translated in green and pink. The transparency and glamour was given by the presence of the crystal and mirror, that illuminates the space
