Wedge: The Attic Signed by Duilio Damilano

27/06/2011 -An intervention by Duilio Damilano is with two barns in the historic centre of Cuneo, which merged and were renovated to young entrepreneurs. The idea of the project is the extension of the areas, and the attic is as large 240mq. It was restricted was by a sloping roof compressing the volume. They created a large space with just a few clicks and allowed more breathing space in the apartment.

By reducing the part of the wall next to the door and opening a window on the terrace in pocket format, the light in the living room connects the inside and the outside. Previously the lights were limited to the presence of the upper.

A septum with natural stone hides the kitchen and opens to the dining room. Life is characterized by a large glazed circular opening in the roof, shedding lots of light on the piano.

The sleeping area is designed as an independent unit, a niche standing in the calm at the end of the day. The bed and the bath-tub, separated by glass, create two wellness areas and the gentle light makes the rigidity of the forms and of the environment. The bathroom is the only enclosed area. The shower is aligned in correspondence with the roof window and uses the advantage of height.

The colours and the selected materials all contribute to give the breath to the rooms and the floors with white, reflective surfaces to create a uniform approach for the parties in chestnut wood and Indiana stone.
