Renovation of an apartment in a historic building in Nice

Elegance is the first impression one experiences when entering a luxurious apartment in Nice, and this apartment embodies that essence.

The entrance features a marble floor with an inlay in Red Jasper on a Crema Marfil marble base, depicting a stylized sun, which serves as an elegant carpet in front of the entrance door.

Inlay is an ancient artistic technique that involves the insertion of stone pieces of different shades and colors to create a unique and fascinating design. The use of Red Jasper, with its intense chromatic hues and suggestive veins, gives the floor a truly spectacular appearance. Master craftsmen skillfully brought out the natural beauty of the stone, creating a customized pattern that exudes exclusivity and elegance.

The Crema Marfil marble, with its light cream tone and subtle veining, provides a perfect contrast to the Red Jasper inlay, highlighting the mastery of the work and creating a breathtaking visual effect. Additionally, marble is known for its durability and resistance, ensuring a high-quality floor that will remain stunning over time.

The dining room of this luxurious apartment in Nice is made unique by an oval rosette with inlays in Brown Emperador depicting the buttoned lily, the symbol of the city of Florence, requested by the client to convey the “Made in Italy” and the proximity to Italian art. The dining room becomes a place where Italian culture merges with contemporary luxury, creating a refined and meaningful environment.

The use of Brown Emperador, a dark brown stone with golden veins, gives the rosette a magnificent appearance and a sense of prestige. The skill of the master craftsmen who created this rosette is reflected in the precision of the details and the perfection of the design.

To enhance the contrast and highlight the Brown Emperador inlays, the background of the dining room was made in Crema Marfil. The skillful use of this marble creates a harmonious visual balance, where the inlays become the absolute protagonists.

In the corridor, an inlaid marble carpet has been created, composed of square tiles and a Diaspro Rosso border on a Crema Marfil background that runs the entire length of the space, inviting guests to enter.

This carpet serves as a visual invitation for guests to enter and discover the exclusive atmosphere of this prestigious residence.

The square tiles, meticulously crafted with millimetric precision, harmoniously combine to form a unique carpet. The Diaspro Rosso border adds a touch of refinement and defines the perimeter of the carpet, giving it a distinctive appearance. To emphasize the inlaid carpet and create a captivating visual contrast, the background of the corridor has been made in Crema Marfil.

In the master bathroom, the absolute protagonist is the Fantastic Onyx, a striking red onyx with prominent veins, used for the wall cladding, including the shower, the bathtub, and the sink countertop.

The technique used is the open-book layout to further enhance the natural veins of this splendid onyx.

Onyx is a natural stone characterized by extraordinary translucency and unique color shades. Thanks to its intrinsic beauty, onyx creates an atmosphere of luxury and sophistication in the bathroom. The wall cladding in onyx, with its suggestive veins and hues, gives the space a magical and mesmerizing appearance, transforming the bathroom into a true architectural gem.

In the bathroom dedicated to the second bedroom in the apartment, the dominant color is pastel. The Rosa Perlino, a natural stone with delicate shades of pink and subtle veins, has been used for the flooring, walls, and sink countertop, exuding a gentle elegance that perfectly complements the pastel green of the sink.

The Rosa Perlino, with its soft and warm tones, creates a luminous and harmonious atmosphere in the bedroom bathroom. This natural stone reflects light, giving the bathroom a sense of spaciousness and serenity.
