Villa Bog - Villa con piscina e campo da tennis

E|C photography

Villa Bog è lo spazio ideale dove potere trascorrere un periodo di relax in mezzo alla natura senza rinunciare alle comodità di tutti i giorni. A 5km da Città della Pieve, 20km dal Lago Trasimeno, 30km da Perugia e Chianciano Terme, 45km da Assisi e Todi è un punto di partenza ideale dove soggiornare per chi vuole visitare l'Umbria e i suoi incantevoli borghi senza dovere per forza rinunciare alla comodità e fascino di una villa totalmente ristrutturata situata all'interno di un residence. La villa è stata ristrutturata recentissimamente dai proprietari, l'architetto Vitelli Mariaester che si è occupato degli arredamenti e un laureato in ingegneria elettronica Crova Emmanuel che ha curato l'aspetto domotico e l'illuminazione della proprietà. Suddivisa su due livelli, al piano terra si trova un ampio soggiorno con camino che contraddistingue la zona living e si affaccia alla zona pranzo con cucina open-space a vista e uno sbocco diretto alla zona est della proprietà, tramite una terrazza che circonda l'intero fabbricato, la quale conduce alla zona barbecue dove si possono trovare un forno a legna e un braciere attrezzati. Completano il piano terra due camere da letto matrimoniali e un bagno con box doccia oltre ad una generosa dispensa posizionata in un disimpegno antistante camere e bagno. Al primo livello, raggiungibile grazie ad una rampa di scale dalla zona living del soggiorno situato al piano terra, si possono trovare due ampie camere matrimoniali e un altro bagno di servizio completo con box doccia la cui peculiarità è rappresentata dal fatto che questo vano sia stato ricavato sfruttando la struttura pre-esistente senza stravolgere l'urbanistica dell'immobile (tanto che la finestra è stata mantenuta all'interno del box doccia). La proprietà è circondata da 900mq di giardino dotato di irrigazione automatizzata. L'illuminazione è sicuramente il punto forte della proprietà: si tratta di un sistema domotico full LED basato su protocollo ZigBee che permette di comandare il tutto da un'unità centrale (si trarra di un iPad) posizionata all'ingresso del soggiorno e trasportabile in giro per la superficie dell'immobile e del giardino. Questa unità può ovviamente essere utilizzata anche per altri scopi quali la navigazione internet, o la condivisione tramite protocollo cast/DLNA alle TV presenti nell'immobile (una di loro si trova all'interno di uno schienale del divano del soggiorno al piano terra e compare grazie alla pressione di un tasto sul telecomando).

Tuscan rose and gold quartz kitchen

Puccini Kitchens

The allure of this kitchen begins with the carefully selected palette of Matt Lacquer painted Gin & Tonic and Tuscan Rose. Creating an inviting atmosphere, these warm hues perfectly reflect the light to accentuate the kitchen’s aesthetics. But it doesn't stop there.

Intricate patterns within the slats create a sense of movement, inviting the eye to explore the artistry embedded within them and elevating the kitchen to new heights of sophistication. Prepare to be enthralled by the pièce de résistance—the Royal Calacatta Gold quartz worktop. Exuding luxury, with its radiant golden veining cascading across a pristine white backdrop, not only does it serve as a functional workspace, it makes a sophisticated statement. Combining quality materials and finishes via thoughtful design, this kitchen allows our client to enjoy a space which is both aesthetically pleasing and extremely functional.

Small Kitchen with Louvered Cabinets Design Ideas

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to planning your kitchen design. Where do you even start? Gathering some inspiration in a photo gallery is always a good starting point, as looking at different kitchen designs often brings up ideas you haven’t even thought of yet.

Browse Photos of Kitchen Designs for Inspiration and Collect Your Ideas

You can browse through photos of all kinds of kitchen styles, layouts and sizes on Houzz to get started before jumping into any design software or contacting a local professional for help. Here’s a few considerations to keep in mind when planning your kitchen.

1. What Makes a Good Kitchen Design, and Why is it Important?

For starters, you want to find a balance between aesthetics and function. You may have heard of the ‘kitchen work triangle’, which refers to the space between your fridge, sink and stove. You want everything within easy reach when you’re working in the kitchen and look beautiful at the same time. It’s a good idea to take note of both when browsing our photo gallery.

2. Consider Your Space to Determine Your Kitchen Layout

Firstly, consider the space you have, and the limitations that come with it. Do you have a small kitchen and need to maximise your workspace and storage? Can you allow yourself some more space and a big island with seating? Are you designing your kitchen from scratch or renovating an existing design? Which appliances do you already own and what are their measurements? Are there windows you need to take into consideration when planning cabinets? How do kitchen, living and dining areas connect? Depending on your space and needs, you want to use a shape that suits you. U, G, or L-shaped kitchen, with or without island or peninsula? Know your dimensions, plan cabinetry carefully and consider the placement of your appliances. You don’t want to end up with a finished design, only for your significant other to question where the fridge is supposed to go. Consider from the start where your fridge, oven, microwave and sink goes to save yourself from starting again from scratch - remember the kitchen work triangle! You also want to plan the layout of your cabinets. Maybe you’re planning for a pantry and can do with less storage space in your kitchen, so that your design can be one without upper or lower cabinets for a different look. A corner cabinet can be a smart storage solution if you want to keep the look clean and simple.

3. Decide on a Kitchen Style, But Don’t Forget Practicality

You want the style of your kitchen to reflect your personality and taste. We have curated a large array of kitchen styles here at Houzz, from traditional to contemporary to transitional and everything in between. Consider what your cooking style is for a start - Italy is known for its cuisine, so italian kitchen designs are generally popular. Also consider ergonomics - depending on how much time you spend in your kitchen, the height of your counters can make a big difference to your overall health. You also want to consider colour and finishes of cabinets, countertops and splashbacks. Which colour do you want your cupboards to be? Simple, timeless white or rather making a statement in black? Maybe rather a rustic wood? Also consider the colour of your floor - if you have dark floors, you may want to keep cabinets lighter. You could also go for an all-white look and choose black appliances for contrast. Once you know which style you fancy, don’t forget how you will be using the space. You want to keep cooking in mind, as well as how easy to clean and maintain the space will be. How many cooks do you need to accommodate? Do you have kids around? How much storage do you need? Maybe you want to go for open shelves rather than cabinets and allow for easy reach of key items you use when cooking. Again - remember the triangle! Lastly, choose lighting that both enhances the look of your kitchen as well as your cooking performance, providing light in all the right places.

4. Be Conscious of Your Budget

No matter what you plan for your kitchen design, cost is always a big factor. Be sure to plan with your budget in mind. It may make more sense to go for a modular kitchen design rather than custom build. You can save a lot of money if you get at least 3 estimates from professionals before locking in the job. And don’t forget to allow a 20% buffer for emergencies. Once you are ready to hire a pro, our directory will help you find one, no matter where you are. So whether you're looking for an Interior Designer in Melbourne or an Architect in Sydney, you can be sure to find a qualified expert for the job!
