Located in Rome’s ‘Olympic Village’, the ‘Cube House’ is laid out as a single unit in which a central element, in the form of a cube, divides and distributes its various functional areas without any interruptions: living, sleeping, cooking and bathing. Designed by Studio Schiattarella, their renovation in the original 49 m2 apartment is designed in a way that all the internal partitions could be eliminated, resulting in the formation of a single open space measuring 7m x 7m. More images and architects’ description after the break.
This neighborhood, built for the 1960 Olympics by the architects Moretti, Libera, Cafiero, Monaco and Luccichenti, and currently undergoing a significant renovation, thanks to the works of Zaha Adid and Renzo Piano, features buildings with open floor plans.
