The introduced project is the end result of a refurbishment of a single-family members household creating in a residential area of the city middle of Cuneo (North of Italy). The house is a mansion of the Italian typology identified as “dei Ferrovieri”, which beginning in 1908, the Condition Railways Social Safety, began to populate Italy and the spots adjacent to the historical centers by means of this making marketing campaign, Then, subsequently, all these structures have been incorporated in the city tissue. The building in problem is from 1921, it is a preserved and sure assets by the Committee of Architectural Heritage which safeguards its facades and external physical appearance. It is, hence, to be thought of an inside layout intervention.
The initially option we took and required to continue being adherent to from the beginning was the routine maintenance of the roof composition. It was an crucial situation for us. We desired to maintain the inner spirit of the time, preserving the genuine picket beams. Their overall look is an important component of the style spaces, and their artisanal confirmation would be tough to be replicated with newly produced beams.
The modern day facet is offered by the really dim coloring which provides a own natural environment and generates an alteration of the habitual notion of the ceiling. We had been also fascinated in the visual appeal of the unfinished finishings. For two causes, the first is to sustain the historic memory of the residence, the next purpose is that we consider the un-completed details transfer an genuine, correct, and far more hospitable come to feel. There are portions of the present wall which are on sight, portions with even the unique 1920s wallpaper, and parts of the wall with classic bricks only painted with white grout.
The staircase is a sheet steel aspect micro-perforated, it is an object that difficulties gravity, and will work on transparency. e It stands up thanks to its shape and its material’s properties, it only has lateral support and hence it is incredibly reliable. Parallel to the structural features, there are home furniture and outfitting, which convey our way of developing. The objects, created by us, merge with the relaxation of the building. The kitchen, the loos, and some storage walls are in birch and they are in harmony with the components used for other parts of the dwelling.
