ITALY – CAGLIARI

in collaboration with Studio Marco PIVA

In this context, we at Monteleone had the pleasure of collaborating, alongside the Studio Marco Piva, in the realisation of a new concept, taking a leading role in the selection of reflective solutions for the structure. We tell you all about it.

The project for the Tirso Palace in Cagliari

Palazzo Tirso Cagliari MGallery is located in a privileged position in the urban fabric of the Sardinian city: in front of the tourist port and, at the same time, just a few steps away from one of the most attractive areas of the city centre, marked by the shopping streets and artistic and architectural attractions, such as the Bastione San Remy, the Elephant and San Pancrazio Towers, the Roman amphitheatre, the botanical garden and the Citadel of Museums. The structure absorbs and reworks the most accomplished identity of the place, giving it its own interpretation and dominating the space around it. In this scenario, we have been called upon to participate in a significant redevelopment.

Project details

The design process, before its realisation, revolved around some fundamental and indispensable cornerstones, on which the conceptual and design idea was developed: elegant lines, chromatic references to the Sardinian land, comfort, light.

The additional challenge was to define a new stylistic layout, respecting the complex’s native setting, but at the same time accommodating the building around the architecture studio’s new vision. Cagliari’s history as a suggestion, its colours as a guiding thread, the building’s setting as a compass.

Our mirrors for the MGallery project

The designer’s requests were clear from the very beginning: mirrors were needed that could seamlessly integrate into the spaces, marking a point of continuity, while also being able to stand out. Eye-catching yet understated. Innovative and practical. The studio’s idea aligned perfectly with ours, resulting in two projects we are particularly proud of: a rectangular wall-mounted mirror with lighting and a round cosmetic mirror.

The wall-mounted mirror features a minimal profile, elegantly enhanced by LED lighting running along its sides and lateral frosting. Hi-tech solutions that provide the rooms with a chic, discreet, yet powerful luminosity.

The cosmetic mirrors blend seamlessly with the wall-mounted mirror, offering continuity to an overall vision inspired by Sardinian evocations, bringing vibrancy to the rooms through a thoughtful interplay of echoes and reflections: warm tones evoking Sardinian sunsets and shades of blue embracing the vastness of the sea create opposing yet harmonious tensions. These merge into the bright lights of our reflective solutions, the circular forms of the mirrors, and the technical allure of designs tailored to the user’s needs, desires, and aspirations.

Our creations for Palazzo Tirso MGallery, a hotel in Cagliari, proudly bear the SPEKKIO signature, the brand that represents and manifests our approach to the world of mirrors.
