An 1860 building is reimagined as a sophisticated contemporary home, through a carefully curated adaptive reuse project designed to preserve its historical and architectural value. The introduction of a double-height brick vaulted ceiling establishes a harmonious dialogue between the building’s historic shell and its modern interiors, further enhanced by large steel openings crafted with the hot-rolled steel FerroFinestra W40 system.

The striking upper-floor window, shaped to follow the brick vault, features a fixed pane alongside a hinged door that opens onto a small outdoor terrace. On the lower level, the large opening extends into a wide folding door which, thanks to the thickness of the profiles, enhances the seamless connection between the interior and the tree-lined courtyard.
