Southern Italy: Limestone and Vaults

A Mediterranean modern interior in the style of Southern Italy. The ceiling is not flat or made of wooden beams, but rather masonry barrel or dome vaults, plastered with white lime, with continuous curves rising directly from the walls. The floor and countertops are made of the same beige limestone. Furniture consists of simple dark wooden tables and woven straw chairs. A deep window opening in the wall looks out onto an orchard. The overall impression is distinctly masonry with a heavy, massive feel. Avoid: using flat ceilings and wooden beams, using terracotta floor tiles instead of limestone, adding a lot of wrought iron decoration, allowing the curved surfaces of the vaults to be covered by decorative materials.

一個義大利南部風格的地中海現代室內。天花不是平的也不是木樑,而是砌體的筒形或穹形拱頂,表面抹上白灰泥,連續的弧從牆面直接升起。地面與檯面是同一種米黃色的石灰岩。家具是簡單的深色木桌與草編座椅。牆上一個深窗洞,外面是果園。整體有明顯的砌體感與厚重的量體。避免:使用平天花與木樑、使用赤陶地磚取代石灰岩、加入大量鍛鐵裝飾、讓拱頂的曲面被裝修材包覆。
