A meticulous search for and selection of the finest woods and finishes: the final realisation of a project signed by one of the most important and well-known interior architects made exclusive use of materials and fabrics chosen with meticulous care, matched with equally meticulous, carefully studied attention to every detail.

The countless references to the refined, elite style of Art Déco are deliberate and repeated throughout. Starting with the choice of tones that characterise the whole residence, the nods to Art Déco principles are expressed through even unusual combinations of woods and materials, with their pairing itself becoming a decorative element.

Hence inlays in fine leathers and fabrics alongside inserts in luminous metals, selected inlaid and worked woods alongside elegant marbles, and walls with a metal-mesh core clad in glass. The steps of the staircase leading to the upper floor, as well as the handrail covering, are instead upholstered in leather.

Among the distinctive features evoking extreme luxury is the use of amethyst alongside the brass of the handles, and decorative details in precious mother-of-pearl. The result is an experience of tactile and visual sensations of great scenic impact, helping the whole setting to be recognised as a living environment in which every element has the qualities to be unique and exclusive.
