Apartment Toscolano Maderno

Location: Lake Garda

Nestled in the natural landscape of Lake Garda, this apartment is a refined summer residence designed for an American family. A contemporary retreat conceived to offer moments of relaxation, togetherness, and well-being — far from the hustle of everyday life.

From the very first glance, the project stands out for its modern and minimal style, defined by clean lines, neutral tones, and a strong focus on light and materiality. The interior design follows an essential language, where technical solutions and decorative elements are harmoniously integrated without compromising on elegance.

The heart of the apartment is undoubtedly the living area: a spacious open space that includes the kitchen, dining, and lounge in one fluid and luminous environment. At the center, the open kitchen with island serves as the functional and social hub of the home. Above the island, a refined ribbed glass pendant light draws the eye with subtle grace, adding character while blending seamlessly into the space.

The dining area takes on a distinctive presence through a carefully designed architectural gesture: a volume in petrol blue drywall frames the space with both ceiling and walls, creating a cozy, defined zone. From the center, a modern circular chandelier descends, acting as a striking sculptural element and visual focal point, giving the area depth and personality.

The living room, in continuity with the kitchen and dining areas, maintains the same clean language—essential furnishings, a balanced color palette, and a thoughtful use of both natural and artificial light. Every design choice aims to create a warm, calming environment imbued with subtle sophistication.

Throughout the apartment, the design seeks to balance aesthetics and function. Lighting elements are not mere accessories, but integral parts of the architecture—expressive tools that shape the spaces, enhance materials, and create distinct atmospheres depending on the moment.

Light, in fact, is the guiding thread of the entire project. Carefully designed and calibrated, it accompanies each room, underlining its purpose and enriching its sensory value. Lighting Design here is not just illumination—it contributes to shaping a complete, emotional, and personalized living experience.

In essence, this project blends rigor and sensitivity, technique and aesthetic vision, offering an elegant and contemporary interpretation of the vacation home. A place designed to be lived in with ease, without ever compromising on quality or beauty.
