Vico

Wood does more than warm. Several rooms are lined in waxed petiribí, which carries the acoustics of the cinema and playroom; the kitchen ceiling is kiri, crossed end to end by a solid kiri pendant light designed by the studio as one continuous gesture; and in the main bedroom the kiri is stained like ebony, forming a full-wall headboard against travertine floors and a leather Barcelona chair. The five-meter island in Silverwhite granite starts as a breakfast bar and ends as a bar, facing a black-lacquered kitchen with its wine shelving in wood.

Two rooms carry the house's spirit at its clearest. The playroom, wrapped in petiribí, holds the projection screen, a toy library, and the circular window — the studio's signature — furnished with a cushion as a reading nest against the stone of the patio. And the quincho, a room in its own right: rattan lamps and armchairs, a lapacho table, an island in Neolith and stainless steel, all on unmarkable porphyry — furniture chosen to be sat on in a wet swimsuit.

Nothing in the interior asks for attention; the calm is the design.
