01 · Living hall
The stair is the centrepiece
A travertine flight climbs a wall of textured stone, with a mezzanine walkway in silvered oak above. Furniture stays low so the volume stays the star.
The project
A two-storey villa rebuilt inside and out around a single double-height hall, with a new white-stone facade, a show kitchen and a pool garden.
Palette
Velora was reworked around one tall room. A folded travertine stair now climbs the full height of the living hall, and everything else on the ground floor opens off it through broad arches instead of doors.
Outside, the facade was reset in crisp white stone with a single soaring arched window and a glazed garage that shows the car rather than hiding it. The pool terrace and planted garden finish the sequence.
One room carries the house
Full-height curtains, a folded stone stair and a curved olive sofa make the hall the centre of the home.
Bronze as the thread
Slim bronze reveals edge every arch, cabinet and ceiling tray, tying stone, oak and marble together.
Each room its own mood
Olive in the hall, taupe in the family lounge, cane in the guest suite and powder blue for the teen room.
