Rousseau Penthouse
Located on the thirteenth and top floor of the iconic residences designed by Daniel Libeskind, Rousseau Penthouse is a perfect expression of architectural elegance and residential comfort. The space was designed in collaboration with Roseto S.r.l., a business entity specialized in the management of the leasing of owned properties, which oversaw the interiors in their entirety. Salvioni Design Solutions, in turn, took care of the furnishings, selecting numerous design pieces that have been placed throughout the various rooms.
The apartment is laid out over two levels dedicated to the living and sleeping areas, interconnected through aesthetic choices conceived to create a sense of continuity in materials, finishes, and furniture selections. The chosen tones are deliberately neutral and pastel, enriched with accents of gold and refined materials such as marble, glass, and stone.
Upon entering, the visitor is welcomed by a sumptuous living area defined by a large Goodman sofa by Minotti and Leon coffee tables by Meridiani. Lighting is provided by Raimond II pendant lamps by Moooi, whose striking structure nonetheless ensures a subtle, understated diffusion of light.
Double-height glass walls lend brightness to the space, offering a breathtaking view of the Milan skyline and the green areas of City Life.
The dining area features a Gervasoni pendant lamp and a large Sengu dining table by Cassina surrounded by Belleville chairs by Vitra. A touch of elegance is provided by the floral-themed wallpaper by Glamora, featuring hues that echo the surrounding palette.
The adjacent kitchenette has been separated from the other spaces by a modern glass partition. The choice of fine marble for the countertop and profiles blends seamlessly with the style of the other rooms, creating a sense of coherence and cohesion.
The space is completed by a large terrace with a relaxation area and a convivial outdoor space designed for lunches and dinners. Also inside are the bathrooms and three discreetly charming sleeping areas, for internal use or possibly for friends and guests.
The upper floor is accessible via a modern staircase featuring numerous glass design elements. This second space is designed for a more intimate and private use, as it houses the master bedroom with an adjoining bathroom and a spacious walk-in closet, indispensable for the most well-stocked wardrobes.
A distinctive feature of the bedroom is the presence of a double bed surrounded by Porada bedside tables and a Dora bench by Novamobili, complemented by a custom-upholstered wall with geometric patterns that visually expands the space and lends it a refined elegance.
A second outdoor area with Dedon furnishings overlooking City Life offers the opportunity to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis below.
Finally, a distinctive feature of the apartment is a fully independent multifunctional area which, located on the upper level of the penthouse and overlooking the double-height living room, represents an ideal space for reading, conversation, or private study.
