NEVER TOO SMALL: 15th Century Small Apartment Redesign Italy - 36sqm/387sqft

Located in the center of the historical Italian city of Mantua, the unique looking Monolocale EFFE apartment is characterised by an original fresco mural on its walls, discovered under decade old layers of paint by architecture and design firm Archiplanstudio, during the renovation. Originally part of a larger apartment, Archiplanstudio knocked down the wall between the original bedrooms creating a separate entrance, a new bathroom, kitchen and dining area all built around a central sleeping cube added to the middle of the apartment. The open living area includes the dining space, with an expandable dining table and floating bench seat integrated into the wall of the sleeping cube. The simple but fully equipped kitchen with light gray cabinets and brass finishes, includes a wall mounted induction hob that can be placed on the counter when needed, freeing up much needed counter space. The clever custom-made bench set along the window functions as a generous low shelf with storage space beneath, as well as additional seating for guests.

    A classic induction hob is not a problem, it does not reduce the working space. They are in ceramic glass and you can use them to prepare food as a normal working top. The sink is too close to the oven column, so it seems to be very uncomfortable to use. The bed is very difficult to make and stuck in a so narrow space it looks a little bit claustrophobic. I know that the apartment is very small but I think that the project has some big mistakes

  • @Bobrogers99

    Although the glass surface of an induction burner allows you to use it as working space, they can also be damaged. That's why I thought storing them on the wall was a clever idea. Yes, the sleeping cube is too small for that bed, and the kitchen sink is inconveniently placed.

  • @jpp7783

    I disagree. Induction hobs can be used to delicately place something atop, but you wouldn’t want to work them very hard, dragging a heavy pot or even serving platter over them. As for the kitchen sink, for reasons I’ve never understood, this is VERY common in Italian city homes; the sink is always crammed into a spot with no working space around it. The bed, I dare say, is perfect. Yes, a bit more work to make, but well, life’s tough. Expanding the perimeter comes at great cost of space taken from elsewhere, and with little payback-what do you really use the side of the bed for anyway? A book, a box of tissues, and a few condoms is about it.

Any apartment this small should have a Murphy bed to maximize the space. Then you could have a larger sofa and more seating for guests. I would feel very claustrophobic sleeping in that box in the middle of the room. I love the location.

    Murphy beds are not used in many countries - especially the ones which have a "siesta" tradition and use beds all day for different purposes. The upper part of this cube is open, so no problem if your claustrophobia isn't a pathology. I think the bed's too wide. It'd be OK with a narrower one for me...

    The concept is cool, with the organic touches of wood and stone. But there is something lacking in this project when it comes to the dining area and sitting zone. Don't really understand the choice of only benches instead of few chair around the table, which don't take up more space and are way more comfortable to sit on, especially when you have guests. And the couch doesn't go with the space. It feels disjointed, probably because of the velvet. I love the area around the windows, but without any textiles it doesn't seem inviting at all.

    I thought those wall mounted induction cooktops were some fancy speakers... Haha... Lovely space, especially the walls....

    A beautiful design element. The light is crisp and the lines are very clean. I love the function without sacrificing comfort or space. This apartment with it's frescos adds a deep connection to the past. I think one could pass many an hour here, restfully and creatively. One of the finest remodels I've seen, again the lighting and muted colors are perfect!

    Wait how is this not a sacrifice of comfort? Definitely an uncomfortable seating and dining area. And yes I realize this is a year later😅

    I really like the acid-etched gold-coloured mirrored lower cabinet doors. They really enliven the space. All the colours are chosen very skillfully.

    This is a very different space from what I have seen. I love the beautiful fresco on the wall. I live in 450 sq feet but I found this a little small for me.Still it was beautifully restored. Bravo and regards from Montreal Canada.❤️🇨🇦👍🙏

    Brilliant example of how to THINK OUTSIDE of THE BOX and keep the walls intact. Love it. (Vertical hot plates are my cup of tea).

    really great episode i like the color and the separation of living and sleeping. and clever to put the sink outside the bathroom if 2 people live there one can brush teeth outside at the sink and the other can stay in the bathroom

    Love the solution for the induction cooking hobs. Overall, it's not a design I would go for, but there are some neat ideas here that I would try to incorporate into my own space in the future. Really like the way the architect treated the walls too, they're lovely!
