In the heart of Milan, architect Virginia Ministeri and interior designer Alessandro Spagliardi, supported by Mohd’s curated furniture selection, have transformed a former garage into a home that tells stories of light, materials, and connections.
The entrance opens into an enclosed microcosm where the contrast between the urban setting and the building’s sheet-metal facade sparks visual tension, inviting curiosity and discovery.
At the center lies a garden that serves as the house’s heart, seamlessly connecting the rooms and inspiring contemplation. Indoors, light dances across glossy and matte finishes, while wood, iron, and glass interplay with a warm, enveloping palette.
As evening falls, the house glows with an intimate charm, transforming into a lantern of peace and warmth—an oasis that contrasts with the city’s relentless pace.
In the kitchen, materials and details are skillfully combined to craft a space that transcends mere functionality, creating a welcoming environment filled with personality. The design strikes a harmonious balance between wood and metal, elevated by a palette of warm, earthy tones.
The flooring, with its subtle yet refined texture, evokes a Mediterranean aesthetic.
Clean geometries define the open kitchen, which flows effortlessly into the living area through the continuity of materials and the thoughtful distribution of natural light. Essential and well-proportioned furnishings highlight the space’s harmony without overwhelming it, fostering an atmosphere of intimacy and relaxation. Every corner reflects meticulous design, blending contemporary elements with bold accents.
The dining area stands out for its understated elegance, where premium materials and meticulous detailing establish a welcoming, modern ambiance. A table with a polished marble surface captures and amplifies natural light, enhancing the visual connection to the outdoor garden. A wall adorned with geometric reliefs adds depth and character, offering a discreet yet striking decorative touch.
Expansive windows not only frame the surrounding greenery but also create a constant dialogue between the interior and exterior.
The furnishings, with their fluid lines and warm wooden elements, integrate seamlessly with the space, resulting in a unique, appealing setting.
One versatile space has been designed to cater to the diverse needs of daily life, uniting the practicality of a dining area with the comfort of a cozy living corner.
A wooden table, paired with iconic chairs, becomes the focal point for shared moments and reflective pauses. Abundant natural light envelops the space, fostering a bright and inviting atmosphere that maintains a connection to the outdoors.
Nearby, a sofa offers a more intimate retreat, providing the perfect setting for reading, contemplation, or private conversations.
Walls adorned with artwork and shelves housing books and personal treasures narrate a unique and personal story, making the room an authentic reflection of its inhabitants.
The living area is designed to both welcome and captivate, featuring a harmonious blend of natural light, exquisite materials, and bold colors.
At its center, a large, enveloping sofa defines the relaxation zone. Velvet cushions in hues ranging from purple to mustard add richness and warmth, positioning the sofa as the focal point of a living space that balances comfort with a strong aesthetic identity.
Two retro-inspired green armchairs with wooden frames complement the room’s contemporary essence, forming an inviting corner for conversation or reading.
Once again, expansive windows dominate, offering uninterrupted views of the garden outside. The greenery visually merges with the interior, dissolving boundaries and deepening the connection with nature. This fluid interplay between indoor and outdoor spaces creates a sense of openness while preserving a cocoon-like intimacy.
The bedroom, located on the upper floor, reveals itself as an intimate and welcoming oasis, where every detail contributes to an atmosphere of serenity and refined harmony.
