Overview
Bump Studio undertook a project to reorganize the interiors of an apartment located in Genova. The methodology involved the introduction of a folded yellow volume, which served as a central element in the redesign. This intervention incorporated specific design principles focused on color, geometry, and custom sculptural elements to redefine the living space.
Approach
The design approach by Bump Studio for the Genova apartment centered on the strategic deployment of a folded yellow volume. This element was not merely decorative but functional in its capacity to reorganize the apartment’s internal configuration. The integration of color, specifically yellow, was a key aspect of this approach, contributing to the overall aesthetic and spatial definition.
Geometric considerations played a role in the design, with the folded volume’s form influencing the internal divisions and flow within the apartment. In addition to the geometric aspect, custom sculptural elements were incorporated. These elements were developed to complement the folded yellow volume and contribute to the reorganization of the home's interiors, suggesting a cohesive design strategy where form and function were addressed through specific fabricated components.
Findings
The project resulted in a reorganization of the Genova apartment’s interiors. The primary mechanism for this transformation was the folded yellow volume. This element, alongside the deliberate use of color, geometry, and custom sculptural components, collectively reshaped the living environment. The studio's work is characterized by these specific design interventions aimed at reconfiguring residential space.
Why This Matters
This project demonstrates a design strategy that utilizes specific architectural elements to reorganize interior spaces. The application of a folded volume, combined with color and custom sculptural components, offers an approach to reconfiguring apartment layouts.
