New living solutions
Studio Matteo Colla
Great success for the presentation of three new living spaces in Milan made by the Matteo Colla Studio. The guests had the pleasure of visiting the residences, to understand what has been the project of transformation of an old historic printing press in Milan in Via Simone D'Orsenigo. In the realization of the residences, the attention to environmental issues has been a priority objective from the beginning, without sacrificing the formal and aesthetic content: open spaces, immediately readable, simple in design and function.
