A young couple with a little son are the owners of the house. They love minimal style and design but they did not want a cold and aseptic house therefore the designer has used warm colors and finishing materials that have characterized all the interior of the villa.

The ground floor bathroom has a tub whose side is covered with the same parquet list to recreate a situation similar to the one in the living room. In the bathroom on the first floor, however, it was chosen to create a shower with integrated seat and masonry shower tray.

The symmetry of the room is enshrined by the two twin drawer units, but not identical in form. A double transparent bronze glass sliding door separates the walk-in closet area, completely designed by the architect who chose a texture similar to the yuta for the shelves.

The exterior of the villa is simple and linear characterized by a garden with English lawn and a very special light spot: a garden lamp that recalls a group of giant calleys that stand out in the green almost they were a corten sculpture.
