Our new, white kitchen focuses on simplicity, a fuss-free design with no gimmicks. The large kitchen dresses houses all the appliances, whereas the hob, with its clean and simple line, takes its rightful place.

This is what we have: a throne-like wicker armchair, sofas with a fluid silhouette, lots of cushions, a carpet that brings to mind a traditional British lawn and a fan too, a must-have of colonial style.

This old wooden table, with a weathered look, goes steady with a retro, leather armchair, turning an otherwise distinctly modern living room into an intimate and homely study.

Between Siena and Arezzo, the unique charm of the Chianti region acts as a backdrop to a renovated farm, drawing from the local vernacular as well as contemporary design.

The precision of steel and the practicality of open shelving. The new summertime kitchen is an informal, convivial space that focuses on functionality.
