A fresh palette

By Francesca Vizzari

Bali

Let's start with a premise, who wouldn't love to have a beach house?
Perhaps some prefer the mountains, certainly, but the sea...
The sea and its nuances, the sea and its scents, the sand beneath your feet, and that blue that fills your eyes.
The sea with a glass of chilled bubbles, the aroma of coconut creams, natural fabrics worn.

Obviously, not everyone owns a beach house, but could we bring its atmosphere to the city?
I think we can, it's all too easy to imagine the colors of the water and the sky mixed with those of linen or raffia.
Cool and delicate shades.
Wood, dusty hues, and braided cotton.

To this atmosphere, I would add a touch of greenery, some exotic or Mediterranean plants. This will allow us to create a cozy, vibrant space and at the same time help us to create a pleasant in & out style.

And you know, I was born colorful, and it's stronger than me not to imagine going beyond.
If I were to bring the sea into my city home, I wouldn't miss the brighter shades of turquoise, green would become vibrant, a touch of pink that makes everything very chic, and lemons, lemons everywhere.
Never forget the role that plants, flowers, fruits, and vegetables play in interior design. Try taking a photo of your kitchen, for example, without anything, and then add what I said. The emotional difference will surprise you.

Among the Sit-In collections, the most suitable for our purpose are Artes, with its dynamic, playful, and vibrant geometry, and Bali with its interwoven leaf design.
Some may think that rugs are not suitable for summer, and many people roll them up and put them in the cellar during the hot months, but it's just a cliché. Quality yarn under bare feet will give us a sense of great freedom and carefreeness.

But let's go back to colors, combinations, and palettes.
With Sit-In, this time I propose two possibilities for our "sea, scent of the sea" mood.
The first proposal is the SOFT one, neutral colors, wicker as a stylistic feature of the main furnishings, a coffee table made of mineral material, terracotta, and glass.
Simple elements assembled to achieve softness and elegance.

Now let's move on to the POP proposal, colors become bolder, patterns mix in a bizarre way, curved and straight lines, striped fabrics, and lacquered metal coffee tables.
Let's not forget the weaves, but here too we can introduce color.
And then the vases in bright green and pink.
Everything becomes fun, exuberant, and never mundane.
I love both proposals, after all, depending on the period, each of us can sometimes feel more POP and sometimes more SOFT. But what I would like to convey with my words is that we can represent every feeling, every mood around us, to always feel suitable for the place that welcomes us, our home.
