Elegance and light: VTR, a 1920s apartment is reborn in Milan

The HV8 Architecture studio redesigns a 1920s apartment near Bocconi University. A renovation project that combines tradition, modernity, and design, giving life to harmonious spaces rich in personality.

Milan and the dynamism of design

Milan, the capital of efficiency and good taste, confirms itself as the pulsating center of design. The studio HV8 has transformed the VTR apartment from the 1920s, just a few steps from Bocconi University, demonstrating how interior design projects can renew spaces harmoniously. This ambitious intervention, characterized by meticulous attention to detail, reflects the perfect balance between tradition and innovation, with solutions that enhance light and space.

Balance between exteriors and interiors

In the apartment restyling, every element recalls the historicity of the 1920s building. The white lacquered doors and herringbone parquet evoke the Art Nouveau style, while delicate shades like gray and light blue create a bright and welcoming environment. Nothing is left to chance: the result is a blend of aesthetics and functionality, an approach that represents the essence of contemporary design.

Social Spaces and Vintage Style

The kitchen and dining room have been designed as a single, warm and welcoming social space. Vintage furnishings, inspired by the 1950s, add a touch of rebirth and style. Soft and curved lines intertwine among chandeliers, tables, chairs, and mirrors, creating a geometric continuum that makes the interiors a true design masterpiece. Each element emphasizes the idea of timeless elegance.

The bathroom: a touch of teal green

One of the most distinctive elements of the project is the bathroom, where the teal green, an iconic color of the 1950s, gives a sophisticated character to the environment. This color, symbolizing balance and harmony, pairs well with essential materials and finishes. The intervention by HV8 demonstrates how simplicity, combined with attention to detail, can transform an anonymous space into a stylish and personality-filled retreat.
