The kitchen is an open-plan arrangement of floating, white-lacquered walls, countertops and furniture, with chairs by Hans Wegner also lacquered in white. The surfaces are completely bare, with no trace of daily use. The adjacent dining area is also open plan, looking out, through glazed walls, on the house���s interior courtyards. In the master bedroom, ���floating��� is again the operative adjective. The high ceiling slants downward, and against the back wall stretches a low, dark-stained shelving unit, almost like a dado, from which projects an immaculate platform bed, lamp tables and lamps in bright white. The severe demeanor of this house together with its exquisite proportions is accentuated by a furnishing scheme as plain as it is luxurious. AGI and Gunni & Trentino have achieved a rare balance between deference to the architecture and sensitivity toward the inhabitants, a mise en scene which is at once Minimalist and human, much like the compositions of Mondrian, geometric, with bold lines and curves here and there.
