La Cava Boutique Home is located in the heart of an ancient quarry where precious stone was once extracted for masterpieces of the Baroque period in the Val di Noto on the island of Sicily. Now La Cava, a holiday home, stands amidst the breathtaking natural scenery as an exceptional architectural project and a part of a UNESCO Heritage site that combines a rich history and timeless modernity.
Expertly curated by the Milan-based architectural firm Fondamenta with architects Francesca Gagliardi and Federico Rossi, La Cava offers a functional blend of technology, efficient design, and unique architecture making it an intimate exclusive home.
Within the distinctive space, Molteni&C has played an essential role in creating intimate spaces that meld seamlessly with the surrounding exterior environment. A thoughtfully curated selection of pieces from the Collection reflects the brand’s core values of tradition, quality, durability, and reliability.
The focal point of the living area is the pairing of the Marteen sofa and Marteen coffee tables by Vincent Van Duysen. The multifunctional seating and storage system creates harmony with an inviting combination of solids and voids that re-write the living experience with a versatile solution. Additionally, defining the space is the iconic D.154.5 armchair designed by Gio Ponti in the 1950’s, re-edited for today as part of the Molteni&C Heritage Collection.
The kitchen selected for the space is the Hi-Line Kitchen by Ferruccio Laviani. The design is crafted for simplicity and linearity, creating a true space for living. Enhanced by the Diamond table by Patricia Urquiola and paired with the uniquely designed Devon chairs by Rodolfo Dordoni, each piece works in harmony to define the heart of the home.
A modern marvel, the Gliss Master walk-in wardrobe system by Vincent Van Duysen is the hallmark of the Molteni&C bedroom collection. This innovative closet solution creates a warm, welcoming layout for quality living.
The attention to detail and meticulous design of La Cava combines timeless elements to create an environment that is an inviting and comfortable experience combined with unforgettable elements in a contemporary space.
