FLORENTINE PATTERN STUDY

Florence, Italy
FALL, 2025

A material and spatial study exploring how historic ornament can be translated into contemporary interior experience. Inspired by a wrought iron fence pattern observed in Florence, the project abstracted and reapplied the geometry across multiple residential environments, using repetition, scale, and materiality to create continuity, atmosphere, and identity.

PROJECT DETAILS

    • Explore how a historic Florentine fence pattern could be translated into contemporary interior spaces.

    • Use repetition and material application to create atmosphere, rhythm, and visual continuity.

    • Examine how the same pattern could produce different emotional experiences across distinct environments.

    • Transform an existing architectural detail into a modern tile pattern.

    • Create interiors that feel layered, intentional, and connected through a shared visual language.

    • Use pattern as both a functional surface treatment and a tool for spatial identity.

    • A wrought iron fence pattern observed in Florence was abstracted into a repeatable tile design.

    • The pattern was applied across both a luxury equestrian tack room and residential living space using different scales, tones, and densities.

    • Materiality, furniture, and styling were used to shape distinct atmospheres while maintaining a consistent visual thread between spaces.
