Sarette
The Sarette project is part of the complete renovation of a family apartment located in a building from the 1970s–1980s. The interior layout was entirely redesigned to incorporate an additional bedroom, transforming a three-room apartment (T3) into a four-room one (T4).
All the spaces are organized around a central volume—a green cube—that structures circulation and concentrates technical functions, becoming the heart of the project. The living areas develop around this core, benefiting from a clear and fluid reading of the floor plan.
Particular attention is given to materiality. The existing parquet flooring is preserved and extended, emphasizing its original character, while the concrete is left exposed to highlight the building’s mineral qualities in an approach that is both aesthetic and economical. Color becomes a tool for reading the spaces: the central cube, coated in glossy green paint, captures and diffuses natural light into the darkest corner of the apartment.
Finally, the project relies on the contrast between raw and refined materials, exemplified by the marble shelves mounted on slender threaded rods with bolts.
