Designed for a family of four, this apartment reflects the multicultural essence of its owners. As the co-owner of MEL Interiors, Marilia infused the space with influences from Italy, Brazil, and Denmark, creating an elegant yet effortless blend of styles.
The interior is a minimalist-eclectic composition, where every element has been carefully curated to evoke a design-forward holiday feeling in everyday life. Iconic Danish furniture—a personal favorite of Marilia—adds timeless character, while a refined mix of textures and materials brings warmth and sophistication.
With a background in architecture, shaped by studies in Brazil and Italy, Marilia brings a deep appreciation for multicultural design and craftsmanship. Subtle yet meaningful details throughout the space give a refined touch of her Brazilian roots, adding warmth and authenticity to the design. The result is a home that feels curated yet lived-in, where thoughtful design enhances daily moments with beauty and intention.
