Casa Tirreno | PAROS architettura

Located in the Montesacro neighborhood - Rome, within a residential building dating back to the 1970s, the family apartment of a young couple has been reinterpreted through a project of spatial and aesthetic synthesis. The design redefined the internal layout according to a logic that privileges fluidity and circularity. Boundaries between functions are softened, allowing the spaces to follow one another and establish a continuous dialogue between entrance, living area, and kitchen. The focal point of the living area is a glass-brick wall, conceived as a permeable diaphragm that filters and diffuses natural light. Anchored to this transparent partition is an organically shaped masonry bench that leads from the entrance into the home, becoming both a distinctive and functional element. Resin flooring extends throughout the living spaces, reinforcing the perception of spatial continuity. A system of stained wood panelling stretches from the entrance to the kitchen, integrating storage functions and concealing service areas. This linear feature establishes a rhythm, enriching the domestic space while ensuring both order and formal clarity. The choice of materials and finishes reflects the intention to combine functionality with essential simplicity. The intervention preserves the memory of the family’s past while shaping a renewed environment, capable of responding to the needs of contemporary living.
