Behind the Walls:

Built in the early 20th century, the apartment has been restored following one principle: to reveal, not replace. The aim was not to decorate, but to let the space speak for itself, restoring dignity to its original structure.

The original marble-chip flooring has been preserved and restored, while the historic windows and shutters were brought back to their elegance. During the works, faint traces of ceiling frescoes emerged, delicate memories of another era, now visible without excess. The walls retain layers of old paint left exposed, adding texture and depth.

A vintage marble basin, recovered by a local craftsman, now stands on its own, free of modern frames, celebrated in its simple beauty.

Every mark left by time, on the floors, the walls, the fixtures, has been embraced as part of the story. Nothing has been erased, everything has been allowed to remain.

This approach reflects the vision of Stephanie Fazio, shaped by her background in contemporary art: a sensitivity to what deserves to be preserved, what to bring forward and how to create balance between past and present.

La Casa al Colosseo is not just an apartment: it is a place where time slows down, and where beauty is found in imperfections, genuine, unpolished, and real.
