SITTING ROOM

A painted silk panel by Elena Carozzi takes centre stage. Much of the furniture is mid-century pieces reupholstered in beautiful velvets.

SITTING ROOM

When open, the doors of the display cabinet lay flat against the rosewood panels and their painted silk fabric lining becomes an artwork in itself.

Fireplace by Nobis Penazzi was created in collaboration with artist Elena Carozzi and sculptor Maja Thommen. 1930s armchairs in velvet by Dedar. Door lining, Elena Carozzi

KITCHEN

The island features an acid-etched metal finish. The effect chimes with the clouds in the whimsical wallpaper.

When Sofia Nobis’ parents bought a 1970s-era apartment in Milan in need of renovation they knew they could turn to their daughter and her husband Stefano Penazzi for inspiration. Both architects, the duo founded Nobis Penazzi in 2019 and after being handed the reins to the project they created a flexible new floor plan that opened up vast swathes of space with an astounding decorative flair.
