PROJECTS
Piazza Risorgimento, the allure of white for a timeless home
In the center of Milan, Piazza Risorgimento, one of the most fascinating in the city, an late 19th-century building houses a classic-style period home that Francesca Cutini and Lara Fabbian - from StudioDodici - have skillfully renovated and transformed into a contemporary style, with a touch of French allure. "We have maintained its original structure with a particular focus on functionality and modernity. Original materials such as oak parquet and stuccoes combine with modern furnishings, such as the oval marble table to tastefully host lunches or dinners with company," explain the designers.
