LA CASA TRA GLI ALBERI
The project involves the building renovation and conversion to residential use of a low-rise building in Turin.
The courtyard becomes the heart of the project: an “open-air room” onto which all the rooms of the house overlook. The windows, in the winter months, guarantee the supply of natural light; in summer, completely open, they expand the space, ensuring a total relationship of continuity between inside and outside. The courtyard is densely planted and covered entirely in Belgian Blue stone.
The flat roofs, also in Belgian Blue stone, have been transformed into a hanging garden and terrace to enhance all the available outdoor space.

CASA VELLA
The house is a large loft, minimal, furnished with care. A clear, but warm and relaxing environment.
The “Terre Toscane” material (exclusive to Riva Marmi) is the protagonist, which, combined with the wooden walls, gives the environment a soft and velvety character.

TERRE TOSCANE
A collection of projects in which Terre Toscane is the protagonist, a Spanish marble of which Riva Marmi has the exclusive, with a light gray color and rich in nuances.

Combined with wood but also with exposed reinforced concrete, it demonstrates all its versatility and unmistakable character.

I negozi di Selfridge
A timeless icon of shopping across the Channel, the Selfridges luxury department stores have always been a point of reference, ever since H. Gordon Selfridge opened the first in 1909 monumental shop in London, on Oxford Street.
The Selfridge shops are known for their architectural quality. The London store was designed by Daniel Burnham, and built in phases, and was immediately very successful due to the way customers were welcomed and the products could be freely examined.
In the bags department you can admire the cabinets in Carrara Extra marble with a thickness of one centimeter. A nice way for Rivamarmi to be present across the Channel
USED MARBLES: Bianco Carrara “C”
