The brief

The brief was to make 640 square metres feel calm, not vast. We removed three walls, ran a single travertine plane from entry to horizon, and let a bronze stair be the only ornament. Everything else recedes so the city, and the light, can do the work.

Deliberate moves
  • 01One continuous stone plane to unify the level
  • 02A single sculptural stair as the room's only jewellery
  • 03Concealed service so nothing interrupts the sightline
