“Architecture is the art of organizing space, which has the power to shape emotions.” – Jean Nouvel
A home design for a 2+2 family, combining functionality with a passion for outdoor living, gains an additional dimension through the introduction of marsala-colored accents. This deep, warm shade, inspired by the Sicilian dessert wine of the same name, lends the interior a Mediterranean character and elegance. Marsala, produced in the province of Trapani in western Sicily, is known for its rich flavor and history dating back to the 18th century.
A key element of the design is the spacious terrace, the family’s favorite place for relaxation and gatherings with friends. The terrace is equipped with a modern outdoor kitchen, perfect for hosting shared meals in the open air.
The interior of the home exudes tranquility and warmth, thanks to the dominant wooden details covering both the floor and ceiling. The living room is a space where wood, combined with light elements such as a beige sofa, creates a cozy atmosphere. At the same time, the design embraces bold accents, exemplified by the timeless B&B Italia UP50° armchair. The marsala-colored sofa on the terrace and barstools at the kitchen island introduce a touch of extravagance to the space.
The kitchen is an essential part of this home. A large, functional island made of natural Patagonia quartzite serves as its focal point. Moreover, the dark inclusions of tourmaline within the stone, valued for its protective properties, add not only aesthetic appeal but also symbolic significance to the interior.
The spaciousness of the interior, along with an abundance of natural light, ensures that the entire space radiates a sense of calm, openness, and love for nature. At the same time, it becomes a place filled with warmth, style, and shared moments.
