All closets and storage spaces are custom- made and are neutral in their colors and materials, so as to allow more expressivenessto the some pieces of design, some more contemporary (such as Rodolfo Dordoni’s Filigree table or Ron Gilad’s Panna Cotta bedside table), others more classic (suchas Gio Ponti’s Bilia lamp), in addition to some Scandinavian modernist pieces (the cupboard, for example).<cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab  -  The second area, to the right, contains the kitchenand dining area and is visually open onto the living room. The linear kitchen is parallel to the wall on which the windows are arranged, while the furnishings are perpendicular to them in order to accommodate and accentuate their rhythm.<cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab  - Continuity is provided by the oak hardwood flooring, laid in a French herringbone pattern, which runs throughout the apartment and lends warmth to the sequence of ambiences. On it, the sun, through the array of windows and their thick oak casings, draws sharp, ever-changing shadows that enhance the geometric quality of the project. Two long curtains flow to entirely cover the windowed wall, capturing the light and diffusing it into the apartment, without ever completely obscuring the view to the outside.<cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab <cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab  - The sleeping quarters are located to the left of the entrance area, divided by a partition that is orthogonal to the sequence of windows. Clad in glossy green stoneware, the partition includes two large sliding doors, each containing a semicircular opaline glass element. When the doors are open, the two elements come together in a translucent circle that evokes the image of a milky moon. <cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab  - When the doorsare closed and the living area is thus separated from the sleeping quarters, the two semicircular elements reveala compartment, carved into the partition, that houses a bookcase and television set which can be moved frontward into the living room. Thanks to sliding doors, the domestic space defines greater or lesser levels of intimacy. Variable scenes can be created as well, allowing or preventing visual interactions along the apartment.<cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab  - In contrast to the milk-like softness of the living and sleeping areas, the bathroom features more dramatic tones and playful reflections. <cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>&#x27;Sequences&#x27; by Llab  - The wall tiles are marble-look stoneware, enlivened by a custom-made oak bathroom cabinet.<cite>Anna Positano, Gaia Cambiaggi | Studio Campo</cite></p></div></div></div></div><div><br/></div><p>																With this Milanese apartment,the young architects at llabb,already valued for their abilityto develop bespoke, vibrantand original design solutions,offer further proof of theirskills.									</p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><blockquote>																The sharpness of thesegeometries contrasts with thesoftness of the light filteringthrough them</blockquote><div><br/></div><p style="text-align:center">-																Luca Scardulla, Llab</p><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/living/home-tours/inside-song-joong-ki-s-latest-real-estate-investme/34819" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Inside Eterno Cheongdam, Song Joong-Ki’s Latest Real Estate Investment</a></div>
