The Terrace Concept

For the terrace of L’Appartamento MONIOMI Design wanted to create an exterior space that felt like an interior space. The designers were careful in selecting homey, larger, and upholstered pieces that felt like they could be used for an interior space. MONIOMI Design brought a graphic aspect to the historic feel of the space, through the choice of color and by incorporating organic shapes such as the Nuovola 01 dining table designed by Mario Cucinella for Officine Tamborrino. The black and white materials intertwined with greens creating a cohesive flow while making an impactful graphic statement.

The terrace showcases elements that are strongly integrated in MONIOMI Design aesthetic and design language, bringing in color saturation and layered patterns that are a representation of the studio’s vibrant Hispanic roots embedded within Miami's culture. For L’Appartamento terrace MONIOMI has brought Miami to Italy, executing a tropical vibe with a fine layer of Italian craftsmanship, furniture and quality. That marriage is really the perfect fit for L'Appartamento exterior space.

It was important that the terrace felt as primary as the interior while supporting our aesthetic and the way we approach all our designs, which meant bringing in the color saturation and pattern that we identify with. Luckily, we were able to find that through Artemest’s list of beautiful artisans and craftsmen, who provide an amazing variety of these products.
