Located on the top floor of a 1950s building in the center of Palermo, from its openings you can see the bell tower of the Church of San Francesco di Paola and the eighteenth-century layout of the Villa Filippina.
The house is spread over a rectangular plan of 165 m², the pace is marked by the structural elements of the building which constitute one of the founding characteristics of the new project, together with the pitched ceiling up to 5 meters high, brought to light during the demolitions. The project measures itself with the founding elements of the building, organizing the living space in a fluid manner, divided by "wings" that divide the large living room, covering the 3.20 m high pillars, on which the beams deliberately left exposed rest.
The two custom-designed wings punctuate the space, thus dividing the entrance from the living room and the dining area, while the "open" kitchen is defined by the change in flooring, the narrow and long island placed flush with the change in flooring divides it from the rest.
The sleeping area is located at the back of the house, separated from the living room by a mirror door that hides it completely. The two bedrooms are located here, the master bedroom is equipped with an "en suite" bathroom and a walk-in closet, the doors they are designed in oak wood and three meters high, a screen is also designed in blockboard wood, placing the bed in the center of the room and filtering a private area behind it.
