“Beauty to which nothing can be added, subtracted, or changed, without making it worse,” is the definition componimento (compositions) by the architect and theoretician of the Italian Renaissance, Leon Battista Alberta. It remains classic, fundamental. They have been used for centuries. It informs us that integrity is the basis of any aesthetic.
A complete architectural space is obtained when all its elements obey the same laws. What does this mean? Self-scale, harmony of proportions, balanced palette form a close interaction between objects.
Creating opportunities for a holistic perception of space is the basis of the philosophy of the ELIO HOME company. It sets uniform rules of the game for all interior details. Boisettes and interior doors become symphonic, cabinet facades and wall finishes get related textures, movable and stationary partitions are made of the same material, the seams of finishes and decorative panels become part of the overall pattern, the plinth of cabinet furniture and the plinth of the wall converge in a continuous line. This is how purity is born. In this purity and absence of excess, light, air and forms come to life. Componimento is born in such projects.
