The main floor of an ancient 17th-century building, located in one of the most elegant and monumental districts of the city of Naples, covers an area of 135 square metres. The nobiliary sea view from the living room is truly impressive and is an integral part of the ballroom of this charming building, protected by the Cultural Heritage Bureau, which needed to be enhanced and interpreted in a contemporary key - Palazzo Ravaschieri di Satriano.
Embellished by the original wooden ceiling, the high ceilings of the rooms allowed for the insertion of new walls as 'elements designed to divide without closing off, to accompany the gaze rather than arrest it'.
This is how NP Architects describes the primary objective of the entire renovation and interior design project, which was declined in each room with an in&out approach, with a constant view towards the outside and natural light pervading the walls.
Lodes A-Tube Nano, radial in the seating area and linear in the dining area, which enhance and make everyday living more functional.
The open-plan living area culminates in an elongated space, seemingly unsuitable for accommodating a kitchen.
The island becomes an element of fluidity, not an obstacle:
it organizes the space without interrupting the perspective,
opens up the visual passage towards the sea, allows natural circulation between functions and offers a breathtaking view.
Giving you a clear view thanks to its design while meeting your kitchen's extraction needs, it also discreetly lights up the cooking area with two LED light strips.
