A warm, sandy palette defines this bathroom in a period apartment in Brera, Milan.
The original 20 × 20 cm yellow tiles felt out of place within the character of the home, defined by moulded doors, wooden floors, and carefully crafted details.
As the apartment was rented and invasive works were to be avoided, the existing tiles were retained and covered with a continuous microcement finish extending across the floor, walls, and bathtub.
Personalisation completed the project: the bathroom was treated like any other room in the home, enriched with artwork, sculptures, sailing regatta trophies, wooden accessories, and personal objects. A mirror framed in reclaimed timber adds another layer of texture and meaning.
The result is an intimate, layered space where natural materials and personal memories give the bathroom a new identity, in harmony with both the character of the apartment and the personality of those who inhabit it.
