How to make and salvage a house: feature in Cabana Magazine

In this thoughtful interview in Cabana Magazine, coinciding with the launch of our book, our co-founder, Maria, talks to Sara Pierdonà showing how Retrouvius’s philosophy marries the art of reuse with considered design, emphasizing that designing a home is an interplay between client aspirations, the existing architecture and the materials themselves. The essence of creating a house, lies not in grand statements but in this careful balance and in the quiet layering of atmosphere.

With many thanks to Cabana Magazine for commissioning the piece and to Sara Pierdonà for the interview. Please click here to read the entire piece.
