Blade is a private apartment in Lugano where Italian designer Marco Parentela translates nautical principles into land-based interior design. Overlooking the Lugano hills, this compact home feels effortless, with custom joinery, hidden storage and flowing circulation that maximise functionality without sacrificing elegance.
Natural materials and a muted palette of woods, stone and soft textiles recall the calm of a yacht interior, while bespoke furnishings and subtle detailing ensure each room feels tailored and enduring.
