The story behind the project

Conceived as a genuine common thread, the palette unfolds from room to room, playing on tones of earth, ochre and burgundy. The colours wrap the volumes, underline the arches and the joinery, and give the project a strong identity, at once contemporary and deeply timeless.

Sinople became the through-line of the project, creating a subtle link between all the spaces.

“Colour draws the sightlines as much as it reveals the volumes.”

The colours in this project

Every colour was chosen to echo the palette's earth, ochre and burgundy tones, with Sinople running through every space as the project's quiet signature.
