MURANO

One apartment, two very different daily rhythms. Mornings belong to the kitchen island: coffee and bare feet on warm oak. Evenings move to the terrace, where the stone countertop is still warm from the sun and rattan chairs gather around the grill.

A couple relocating to Limassol wanted a space that helps them slow down, not through decoration but through the way the rooms work. Every zone was built around one question: what does the body need at this moment of the day?

The green thread

One detail holds the apartment together: a green Murano glass chandelier whose colour reappears across the rooms. It is not a statement piece but a colour thread, easy to miss at first and impossible to unsee once noticed. In daylight it throws soft green reflections on the walls; in the evening it dissolves into warm cove lighting.

Day logic, evening logic

The open living and kitchen zone runs on daytime energy. The island shifts from coffee bar to work surface to dinner table as the hours move, and folding rattan chairs clear the passage after the meal. The window niche in the private room works the other way: a reading seat with hidden storage, made for switching off. A compact desk between the wardrobes handles focused work without taking a whole room.

Terrace as a second home

The outdoor kitchen is a full part of the plan: a grill, a stone island, a fridge and dining for six, all under a timber pergola with a view over the hills.
