Buzzi & Buzzi

Buzzi & Buzzi versatility for a apartment in Rome
between minimal design and games of contrasting colours

The theme of this project is to create a modern flat, luminous and practical, suitable for a young couple, with the support of Studio Andrea Castrignano.

Principle need of the customers was to divide the spaces giving an outfit more practical, creating an additional bathroom and a wide kitchen opened towards the living room.

The project wanted to maintain a minimal and neutral wrapping to play with the furnishings, coatings and accessories chosen between the best companies on the market.

The predominant colors are white and ice gray, wisely used to for the most of furniture and walls.

The use of Buzzi & Buzzi lighting products allow to obtain coherence of clean colors and shapes, thanks to the minimal design of the lighting bodies and to the possibility to paint and decorate it with every kind of finishing fittings the taste and the needs of the designer. “ We chose as usual to use Buzzi & Buzzi products because they perfectly integrate in every kind of framework and are the union between a technical lighting and a design product” declared the interior designer Andrea Castrignano author of the project.

The product Buzzi & Buzzi Pipedo Open have been widely used in the entrance and the guest spaces, like the bathroom and the bedroom: as light for mirror in the bathroom and as ambient light in the other rooms. Thanks to its “pure” design is easy to suit the need of the customers, painting it with the colours of the house, ice grey, possibility granted from the material.
Thanks to their versatility the Buzzi & Buzzi products are perfectly integrated in the walls and painted with the same colour chosen for the rooms or participate to a games of colours and contrasts created by the designer.

Example of this sperimentation of opposites is the product Pipedino Open installed in the master bathroom: in this room this wall lamp remains white as the (ceiling) to create a strong opposition with the black wall coating.

These suggestive atmospheres are recalled also in the shower, where we find the products Passè, made of DurCoral®, material highly resistant to water and humidity and suitable for swimming pool, spa, bathroom or humid spaces where is necessary an high protection from water.

A further breaking element is the choice to maintain the product Master Open in the master bedroom and in the guest bedroom in its satin white to create an elegant contrast with the wallpaper.

Beside this the interior designer wanted to constellate the house of light points to give warmth to the white ceiling. For this reason have been installed the total recessed products Nefi of the Technical line by Buzzi & Buzzi, creating luminous holes, that seem to come out directly from the walls, granting a minimal and pure design, characteristic needed from the customer.

In the hallway the desire to extend the space have been satisfied by using luminous cutting with the linear system Invidia by Buzzi & Buzzi.

One of the products used is Nastro, just designed by Andrea Castrignano for the company and presented to Euroluce fair 2013. Installed in the living room, Nastro creates an incredible sinuous effect of movement of the shapes that resume the padded placed at the foot of the coach.

The lighting project didn’t want only to obtain an aesthetic balance but also to create healthy and purified places. All the Buzzi & Buzzi products installed, except Passè, are made in AirCoral®, the innovative material patented by the company, eco-active, antipollution, antibacterial and photocatalitic that purify the air and contributes to improve the quality of life of people living in these spaces. Beside to maintain the aesthetic characteristics of Coral® and it resistance, AirCoral® distinguishes itself for the bactericidal activity against pathogen agents of potential serious diseases and for the capacity of degradation of polluting elements present in the city also in absence of light.
