Apartment J

A quick turn over on a small budget, this investment property in Porta Venezia, Milan was purchased as a short term holiday rental. Tired and showing a great deal of wear and tear from its previous tenant, the apartment was lacking light and a personality. We adopted a simple but sleak Vintage Italian style as its differentiating point from other rentals in the area.

SHARE PROJECT

In the dining corner, hints of blue and green, lighten the mood and compliment the 19050s table, chairs (acquired from a film set) and repurposed vespa lamp.

Hand engraved stools were re coloured and repurposed, as bed side tables. Likewise the bed head, made from two removable velvet cushions and suspended on a curtain rail was purpose made for the project.

An antique travelling trunk sourced for the living area forms both a generous coffee table and an opportunity to store both guide books and games for guests.
