This Milanese apartment is home to a big collection of major names in contemporary art and also to fine historical design pieces, both a passion of the owners.
The art is museum quality but certainly this home does not look like a museum, but has instead a warm, inviting feeling, due in part to the use of red and orange to create a high energy atmosphere.
Light is abundant and the architects, Studio Cerri & Associati, have allowed it into the space using fine linen for the white shades covering the large windows.
The light coloured wood floor creates a nice flow between rooms, the choice of pure white for the walls creates a perfect background for the contemporary art.

In the more formal dining area we recognize the Saarinen table and chairs, produced by Knoll, while the wood piece of furniture behind is designed by the same architects in charge of the renovation.
