Overlooking one of the small squares in Milan’s Nolo district is the apartment of Giulia Cribellati and Federico Bellucci, who have been living and working in the neighborhood for several years. The couple is involved in vintage and design: Giulia runs her space “da Flea,” where she displays and sells a personal selection of ceramics, glassware, small furniture and decorative objects. Federico operates the well-known “Magazzino 76” and the more recent “Galleria Bellucci,” large industrial spaces located beneath the railway arches, where he showcases an extensive collection of furniture pieces spanning every era and style. For their own home, they desired a flexible space that could accommodate a constantly evolving array of objects. Almost by chance, they found an apartment on the sixth floor of a 1960s building, a typical Milanese interior with palladiana flooring and wallpapered walls, with the living and sleeping areas strictly divided by a long central corridor. To reimagine the space, the couple commissioned the project to Chiara Lionello, who transformed the apartment through a series of light yet deeply transformative interventions, creatively reinterpreting what already existed.
