A Milan Atelier....................

No this isn't some fabulous warehouse home conversion - although I could happily live here amongst all the exposed beams and bricks - but the atelier of Milan jewelry designer Melania Crocco.   Housed in a Milanese type of public housing and built in the 1900's, it was rough-brick studio with lots of character. However to give it an identity, Melania sourced and filled it with showcases found in Spain, Belgian flooring, lighting from the Netherlands and furniture by Italian artisans to tie it together.  The shape and materials used all come from the natural world and the neutral colours are quieting which allows Melania to focus and find inspiration for her jewelry designs
