Restoring a centuries-old structure demands restraint, precision, and deep respect for its origins. In the case of this 140 m\u00b2 apartment within Siena\u2019s Palazzo Rinuccini, CMTarchitetti<\/a> has done just that\u2014melding contemporary design with medieval bones. The space is set within a Romanesque tower built between the 11th and 13th centuries, its original materials uncovered and celebrated after years of being hidden under plaster and paint.<\/p>\n

The architects allowed the structure to speak for itself. Cavernous limestone and \u201cfilaretto\u201d brickwork now define the living space, lending texture and authenticity. Modern interventions\u2014resin floors in a soft matte tone, minimalist furniture, and custom cabinetry\u2014are applied with great discipline, never competing with the architecture. Even lighting is integrated into wall reveals, highlighting textures instead of overpowering them.<\/p>\n

Where needed, new elements are inserted with subtlety. The central kitchen island in the 12th-century extension sits beneath ancient elm beams, and a bold yet muted freestanding orange glass sink turns a guest bath into a sculpture niche. Throughout, CMTarchitetti’s work is a lesson in architectural restraint and reverence\u2014modern, but never loud; new, but always in dialogue with the old.<\/p>\n
