House CD: time renews itself in the domestic space

A 1960s-70s home is reborn through a restyling intervention that redefines spaces, light, and relationships between interior and exterior. A project that transforms the original layout into a contemporary, fluid organism oriented towards residential well-being.

Redesigning Space: A New Internal Organization

The restyling project of House CD by Didonè Comacchio Architects stems from the desire to transform a residential building from the 1960s-70s into a contemporary space, capable of meeting the needs of modern living. The intervention goes beyond simple renovation, shaping up as a true recalibration of the internal spaces, where every design choice aims to enhance the quality of daily life. A key aspect was the new study of flows, which led to the modification of the staircase connecting the upper floors. This intervention allowed for the freeing up of the raised floor, transforming it into a spacious open space designated for the living area, fluid and welcoming.

Functionality and comfort: more efficient environments

The main entrance has been redesigned as an independent and functional space, capable of accommodating a guest bathroom and a small wardrobe, elements that enhance the daily usability of the house. The sleeping area has been the subject of a targeted intervention: the bathroom has been expanded by merging two existing spaces, thus creating a larger and more comfortable space.
These choices reflect a design approach attentive to the domestic dimension, where internal distribution becomes a tool to create more efficient environments, consistent with contemporary needs and new ways of living.

Light and Relationship with the Outdoors

One of the most significant interventions concerns the opening towards the private garden to the west, achieved through the insertion of a new sliding window. This solution allows natural light to penetrate deeply into the living area, strengthening the connection between interior and exterior.

The redesign of the west facade introduces a metal canopy that unifies the main openings, emphasizing the entrance and offering protection at the same time. In this dialogue between architecture and landscape, the most contemporary architectural projects are inserted, where the relationship with the surrounding environment becomes a central element of the project.

Contemporary exteriors blending design and sustainability

The renovation also extends to the outdoor spaces, completely reimagined through a new design of the pavements and a careful management of the level differences, due to the raised ground floor compared to the garden.

The intervention stands out for a contemporary language that integrates natural elements and functional solutions, contributing to creating a balanced and welcoming residential environment. The new configuration promotes social interaction and well-being, transforming the open spaces into a natural extension of the home.
