213_ ATTIC IN VILLA SORANZO
From the outside, Villa Soranzo stands as a quiet landmark along the Riviera del Brenta—a 16th-century façade defined by balance, rhythm, and the weight of history. The project begins here, by recognizing the villa as a permanent presence in the landscape.
Moving inward, the experience gradually shifts. The ascent toward the attic becomes a passage between eras, where the historic shell remains intact while the interior language grows lighter and more open. What was once a secondary space is reimagined as a sequence of contemporary environments, shaped by light, proportions, and carefully framed views.
Inside, the attic unfolds as a continuous living space rather than a collection of rooms. The interiors open alternately toward the river and the garden, creating a rhythm between openness and intimacy. Natural light defines the architecture throughout the day, enhancing the contrast between the solidity of the existing structure and the lightness of the new intervention.
Original materials and textures are preserved and revealed, while new elements are introduced with restraint. Contemporary furnishings and artworks settle into the space with discretion, allowing the architecture to remain the true protagonist.
The result is a home that unfolds as a coherent journey—from the historic façade to a luminous retreat above the landscape—where memory and contemporary living coexist in quiet balance.
