With meticulous attention to detail and a profound respect for the building’s history, Q&A Studio transformed this residential space into a sophisticated and fresh environment, tailoring the interior design to the young couple who will live it.

Welcome to a contemporary incarnation of art deco elegance.

The apartment, situated in an art deco building in Turin historical city center was designed for the contemporary living of a young couple. Our design strategy focused on preserving and enhancing the building’s original structure, including the oak floors and ceilings adorned with art deco stucco. At the same time, we introduced contemporary interventions that seamlessly integrate with the spirit of the era.

We created a new entrance that serves as a compass to the room, introducing contemporary elements consistent with the building’s style. Interventions include the use of terrazzo and false ceilings to highlight the new additions, as well as the creation of full-height built-in wardrobes to display the family’s collection of design pieces, ranging from the 1920s to the 1970s.

We optimized the space by introducing spacious walls and large mirrors to enlarge the environment, making connecting spaces functional. The centerpiece of the project is a multifunctional black cube that serves as a kitchen and entrance, equipped with generous storage to meet our clients’ practical needs.

Green-toned wall tiles and graniglia flooring declare the main interior design interventions, giving the environment a calm and classy feeling. In particular, the main bathroom, thanks to the green color of the tiles together with the custom-made boiserie, imbues the space with a timeless and chic atmosphere. The original wooden floor parquet adds a touch of natural warmth to the ensemble.

The result is an elegant and functional environment tailored to the needs of the young couple, reflecting their personality and showcasing their design collection.
