The beauty of the interior post industrial style, described\u00a0in different ways in every part of the world.<\/h3>\n

In every part of the industrialized world and in every country that has experienced the development of the ’60s and’ 70s, there is – today – a particular focus on raw interior style.<\/p>\n

Born by a mix of constructive needs and insights from designers and architects who, in the renovation of old abandoned \u00a0factories, created new spaces for the most modern\u00a0needs (offices, co-working, hotels, even homes) have decided to leave some (or much more than some) rough details.<\/p>\n

Let’s\u00a0see some interesting examples, from the far east to the deep south of Puglia, which have made the post-industrial style a weapon of beauty and architectural seduction.<\/p>\n

Let’s start with\u00a0\u201cWaterHouse at South Bund<\/a>\u201d in Shanghai.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We can feel the raw\u00a0in the common areas of this charming hotel, where the exposed concrete and the brick floor are ingeniously matched with total black structural supports, modern lamps and stylish industrial furnishings.
\nThe rooms, let’s admit it, have very little of raw posing more on a more reassuring modern and linear style.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Wythe Hotel<\/a>\u00a0is much bolder, created in an old firm\u00a0\u00a0in Williamsburg waterfront, New York.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What remains of the old factory are red beams and bricks and beautiful glass and aluminum doors. The public areas, with 70’s design sofas, celebrate the sharing of living spaces of 19th-century workers.<\/p>\n

Let’s come to Italy, in Milan, at the heart of Italy’s industry and innovation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

An historic Milanese sawmill was fortunate enough to belong to the grandparents of the art director Tanja Solci, who created, in partnership with the cook Carlo Cracco, the gastro-bistrot Carlo e Camilla in Segheria.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

A raw environment\u00a0where takes place\u00a0the theatrical match between the kitchen, old white porcelain and rough tables, surrounded by non-stuccoed concrete walls and overwhelmed by crystal chandeliers.<\/p>\n

But what happens when the raw style is not in an\u00a0urban area\u00a0or in the former industrial suburbs? What is the magic and the strangeness of finding a raw style … immersed in a nature known for being among the most pristine and beautiful in Italy and Europe?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Incredibly peculiar and special is the raw style of Villa Caroma<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, accommodation in the greenest heart of Salento.<\/p>\n

A villa whose architectural and interior concept is born and evolves around the “raw” style, as if it was a home improvement and refurbishment of an old factory, but with the insertion of shabby and industrial details in the purest\u00a0sense, and with modern and more classic details, even\u00a0“Nordic” ones.<\/p>\n

Do you think you can’t see a masterpiece of comfort with all these details?
\nYou’re mistaken.<\/p>\n

In this spacious charming villa with pool and sea view from the solarium, designed by a renowned Italian artist, the main body and the annexe give space to 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and a large kitchen.<\/p>\n

The common areas point to the best community concepts, recalling the co-working spaces recovered in the former industrial areas\u00a0of Berlin, while the more intimate areas have the shabby chic details remind us how little we need to feel go alone or in couple.<\/p>\n
