A refined reflection of modern Milanese living, Barrili is more than just a home – it’s a curated experience of space, detail, and identity. Located in one of Milan’s charming districts, this elegantly composed apartment is the latest residential triumph by lcr Studio, where the architectural vision of Luca Campo Reale and Chiara Cornacchione meets the enduring craftsmanship of Ritmonio.
Designed with an ethos of lived-in beauty, Barrili is a domestic narrative told through purposeful design, custom-made furnishings, and stylistic nods to mid-century modern aesthetics. Pastel tones reminiscent of Wes Anderson’s cinematic palette blend seamlessly with finishes inspired by the 1950s and ’60s, creating a sense of curated nostalgia and contemporary sophistication in each room.
“At first glance, it could be a film set,” remarks architect Luca Campo Reale, “but more than that – it’s the perfect setting to script your own life.”
This personal, emotive connection is carried through every room, highlighting meticulous attention to detail and a design language that speaks to both the client’s and the studio’s identity.
One of the home’s standout features is its multi-functional porthole within the open-plan kitchen and living area – a bold symbol of the way contemporary Milanese life blurs boundaries between rest, work, and social interaction. Adjacent to this, a transitional walk-in wardrobe subtly separates the public and private zones, guiding occupants into a bedroom retreat. Meanwhile, the bathroom, enveloped in a cloak of imperial red, becomes a centrepiece of opulence and calm.
It is here, in this richly styled sanctuary, that Ritmonio’s Diametro35 tap series in Brushed Bronze takes centre stage. The gleaming warmth of bronze contrasts beautifully against marble finishes, creating an immersive, sensorial experience. The taps, known for their elegant form and modern appeal, not only elevate the space but reinforce Ritmonio’s long-standing tradition of Italian excellence and innovation in bathroom design.
A timeless icon in its own right, Diametro35 continues to set the benchmark for luxury tapware, and in this project, its brushed bronze variant is nothing short of a showstopper. Perfect for those who appreciate refined, fashion-forward interiors, it adds a touch of glamour to everyday rituals while maintaining a timeless appeal.
With Barrili, lcr Studio and Ritmonio have once again proven that exceptional design lies in the harmony of form, function, and feeling – and that the everyday can, indeed, be extraordinary.
