On the shores of Lake Maggiore, among the limestone cliffs that dominate the crystal-clear waters, the residence of a well known novelist is an oasis of peace and design with a sought-after attitude
"My home is not just a set of rooms, but a collection of dreams, passionsand experiences. The constant and silentpresence of books - my work and life companions - is the temporal glue that helps to express my concept of home".

Inside, the spaces are soft and fluid, conveying a deep sense of harmony. The softness and sensuality of the furniture give the house a feminine charm, while the presence of the fireplace, witness to days and nights spent bent over papers and books, contributes to the creation of a cosy atmosphere, making the house the perfect refuge for the writer and her inspired creative process..

The Clapton and Highlander sofas are the stars of the living room. Soft and attractive, the former features a wide, comfortable seat and a contemporary design: the geometric volumes are accentuated by external metal plates covered in leather and by the piping that enhances the contours of the cushions.

The Highlander sofa has a strong and determined personality, combining essential design and a high level of craftsmanship, with an alternation of different finishes, capitonné components and pleating on the backrest.

In the bedroom, the palette of blues and greys and the use of natural materials help to create a sense of intimacy, while the presence of refined craftsmanship enhances the decorativeness already present in the wallpaper. The Broadway bed, in particular, features refined capitonné work, an expression of timeless style brought up to date by the rounded lines and angled square feet. The Sean night tables and chest of drawers, in Tay wood with bronze finish details, complete the ensemble.
