From the coffee break to a glass of wine after dinner: QuadroDesign tapware is the architectural detail that completes the style of the most innovative projects.
The design of public places is one of the areas in which interior designers have the freedom to express all their creative flair, experimenting between eclecticism and functionality.
Here below a selection of the most recent of these places, that in a short period of time all became must-sees and must-visits, both for the local public and for insiders.
Milan, East Side, Studio Wok
Bakery, kitchen, and wine bar designed by Japanese chef Yoji Tokuyoshi and Alice Yamada. The space, like the culinary offerings, recounts a Japanese culture far removed from stereotypes and in some details, dreamy. Cement, black-stained chestnut wood, green fiberglass, fabric noren floating on the ceiling.
Here the tap from the Q collection designed by Studio Adolini stands out, representing the aesthetic synthesis and design path of the company, hence the use of the brand's initial, two pure geometric shapes, superimposed and aligned. The jugs of water offered to customers are filled through a tap placed above a large split stone that seems to come from a Zen Garden. An active carbon filter cleans the water to provide everyone with pure, fresh water. Behind a large sliding door, a jewel-like bathroom with a monolithic washbasin in Moltrasio stone and the FFQT tap by Formafantasma. A series that aims to be equally timeless in its use, intuitive and silent in its presence in the environment.
Milan, East Side, Sagoma Studio
Now a wine bar, formerly a tire shop and before that a historic neighbourhood pasta factory. The flooring serves as a tangible reminder of the evolution of the space, which accommodates small tables in warm wood surrounded by bistro chairs; the operating area looks like an installation, in concrete and steel, and as such occupies an entire showcase. Installation completed by the Inox 398 kitchen mixer, with black flexible hose and hand shower.
Bassano del Grappa, Etiam Studio
Bassano del Grappa - Etiam Studio signs Brett: a natural wine bar carved out of the ground floor spaces of a historic building, of which an important Verona red and white marble chequered floor, exposed beams and brick arches resurface. Mingardo's customised furnishings in metal and stainless-steel fit into this frame. Here again, the protagonist is the counter with the operative kitchen block behind it, in curved stainless steel.
The chosen tap is a graphic sign that stands out on the back wall, thanks to the peculiarity of the Valvola02 single-lever knob, design studio Adolini, a reinterpretation of the typical hydraulic ball valves.
