In an interior courtyard behind the Court of Milan, within a period building, an old residence was to be converted into space for professional office use with the creation of an acoustically isolated meeting room within a nineteenth-century room that was also to be used as a passageway to other rooms in which professional activities were carried out.
The solution was the creation of a totally transparent volume of safety glass resting on the existing parquet floor and composed of double sheets of extra-clear glass with some electrically controlled Venetian blinds in between so that they can be lowered when privacy is needed. Along the top rail of this structure some LED light bars are used both for functional matters and to create the scenic effect of a luminous volume outside.
Recovered and made more efficient vintage cast-iron radiators along with the recovery of old double doors are interspersed with new custom-designed bookcases with inserted LED systems to create lines of light that make the rooms more voluminous.
