Located in the Pianura Padana, or Padan Plain, Northern Italy, this 785-square-meter villa is designed to merge harmoniously with the surrounding natural environment. Created by Unica Architects , the single-story home cuts a sleek, white silhouette across the green plain at the urban edge of a small country town. Villa Orizzonte drinks in views of the nearby river and the clear blue sky through its wide glass walls and perforations on a long, flat roof. Mature Acer trees push forth through the series of voids, integrating the modern lines of the building with the land. Outdoor living spaces are arranged around the swimming pool, creating open areas for relaxation and entertaining guests.
The 785-square-meter home was built within the footprint of a prior dwelling on the site, a two-story rural house that had been demolished. It has a Southward-facing orientation, which maximizes its views of the neighboring river. The crisp white architectural volume is cut through to reveal snapshots of the sky, trees, and shrubs, achieving integration with the natural environment.
Inside the Italian villa, the fresh white and beige decor scheme is minimalist and modern. The modern sofa design is soft and welcoming whilst also echoing the low, linear line of the outer architecture. A beige rug lays down a soft foundation for the sitting area and establishes a tonal link with the adjacent dining room decor. A modern chandelier sparkles above the dining table and reflects in a luxurious white marble fireplace wall. Huge windows in minimalistic frames open the living room up to views of the countryside.
All of the living areas are exposed to the beauty of the garden and the landscape thanks to edge-to-edge glass doors and full-height windows. A concrete overhang controls some of the sun’s glare, keeping the interior spaces cool. An outdoor dining area is situated underneath the concrete cover, allowing meals to be enjoyed in the shade or even during light rain. Wide, sliding glass doors surround the al fresco eating area, making it a part of the home.
With the sliding glass doors drawn back, the interior becomes one with the outdoor living spaces, facilitating an easy flow during daily activities. The trees break up the man-made monotony of the sun deck, adding naturally sculptural elements that elevate the serene quality of the home design.
Remote control drapes lightly cover the massive windows at night and when the sun is high. White decor makes the interior living spaces look bright, airy, and spacious. Brief intervals of light wood tone add small moments of visual warmth to the interior palette.
Conceived as an extensive line, the architecture of the modern home has a powerful horizontal presence. The roof acts as the fifth façade of the house and unifies the interior volume with the outdoor living spaces. The roof also holds practical solar panels and thoughtfully positioned skylights that refine the villa’s energy usage.
The long veranda externally connects the common areas of the house and spills onto a larger sun deck. Ribbons of LED light underline the platform, creating safe footing as the sun goes down and drinks are taken in the outdoor living spaces. Plush white sofas, outdoor lounge chairs, and ottomans are arranged around the deck to receive a multitude of guests.
The Acer trees silhouette against the clean white facade, where they are dramatically uplit come nightfall. A wide driveway sweeps up to the front of the house and private parking is accessible to the right of the property.
The building is divided into two functional zones. The main volume contains the living room and kitchen, and three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. A secondary, stone-clad volume hosts the service areas, the garage, and a small office. The rectangular swimming pool creates a mirror image of the home and its trees. The water stretches across the front of the interior living spaces, with two generously sized outdoor living areas punctuating each end of the terrace.
The infinity pool design makes a reflection of the home right up to the edge of the sun terrace, where it dissolves into a lush green lawn. Pink sunsets play upon the still water, painting a colorful masterpiece.
A sunken seating area plunges beside the swimming pool. The outdoor conversation pit creates a welcoming space for the family to hang out and chat together. A wide outdoor coffee table provides a place to set out drinks and snacks when larger celebrations roll around.
Perforations interrupt the sleek, box-like architecture, creating openings that serve as small and inviting private courtyards. Four voids in the roof serve various purposes: The first roof void creates a Roman atrium at the courtyard entrance to the house. The second roof opening is home to two Japanese Acer trees that spread a level of privacy in front of the bedrooms. The third roof void opens up an exclusive patio for the master bedroom. The final opening is a zenithal skylight that brightens the corridor.
On the floor plan, we can observe how the entry corridor flows directly into the large, open-plan living space. Entry to the home office, a powder room, and the parking garage is made to the right of the entrance. Another small bathroom can be seen on the left but this is accessible from the terrace only. The private bedrooms lie at the back of the house.

Modern Dark Kitchen Design Ideas to Inspire Your Next Renovation
1. Make it an All Black Kitchen
Visualizer:Design At Sketch
Almost completely covered in black, a few minor elements shine in chrome and wood in this kitchen interior. We love how the textures do the talking, especially through the matte table under black wood-panelled walls. But having an open approach like this means that every one of your accessories on display—including knives, wine glasses, mugs, cutting boards, teapots, cookie jars, etc.—need to be on point.
2. Add Wooden Elements
Visualizer:Bogdan Tovstyy
This black beauty edges towards wooden elements. We see a speckled floor, a white wall, and a central bench. Rounded black lamps hover over the island, providing functionality and style. If you’re wondering how visual intrigue is added to this modern black kitchen… a huge credit goes to the abstract art!
3. Complement the Black Kitchen with Orange
Source:Vancouver House
A bit of curve rounds out the hard edges—adding some much-needed warmth. This wave-design bench leads up to an orange-hued enclave in this black-and-silver interior. The burnt orange sure makes a design statement (apart from the unique central island).
4. Keep Your Dark Modern Kitchen Simple
Visualizer:Panda Fox Studios
A simplistic look makes this black kitchen a winner. We see the basics: a light floor, a black minimalist island, and sleek cabinetry. But the contrast between light and dark keeps the ambiance interesting, while the large window welcomes plenty of natural light.
5. Make it Dark… Or Not?
Visualizer:Who Cares Design
If you’re eyeing a dark kitchen aesthetic but are hesitant to make the change, this is it. Introducing more light, this black kitchen is hardly dark at all. Black benches, cabinetry, fixtures and stools are intersected by large-panel windows, a white shelving stand and light flooring.
6. Make Use of Asymmetry in the Black Modern Kitchen
Visualizer:Visual Method
This modern black kitchen takes another angle on this kaleidoscopic space, breaking all spatial boundaries.

This warmer-looking kitchen makes a move to brown. It strategically achieves the purpose with the use of wood. This not only introduces natural textures but also makes the ambiance inviting. Talk about a modern style that’s equal parts welcoming!
8. Place a White Island in a Black Modern Kitchen
Visualizer:Jean Regauer
An instant way to brighten up a dark kitchen (we mean, get the best of both worlds)? This kitchen space shows us how by using a white island on a black floor. The backsplash further enhances this dark-and-light effect, while the cowhide rug adds just the right amount of coziness.
9. Make Marble Your Best Friend
Architect:Chamberlain Javens Architects
If you’re looking to create a modern luxury black kitchen, you know what you’ve got to do: Go big on marble! This natural stone adds the luxe factor to any space, especially as a large, central island, as seen in the kitchen above. You can also add it through the backsplash.
10. Make it Mysterious
Visualizer:Tomek Michalski
You can double the visual intrigue in your all black kitchen by adding some mystery. In this kitchen, mood-lighting sets the scene in black and grey, while a marbled bench acts as the hero.

11. Layer Gray and Gold
Visualizer:Mitaka Dimov
Black kitchens are cool, but what if we layer in gray and add accents of gold? This stunning kitchen space uses gray flooring to add diversity to the otherwise black palette. The thick gold panel is one way that makes the space look incredibly high-end.
12. Add French Style to Black Kitchen Design
Visualizer:Aeroslon
Make your kitchen both modern and French with traditional black cabinetry. In this space, standing armoires act as sinks, and all other displayed items remain black. The stark white clock can surely act as the focal point of the space!
13. Consider Soft Elements
Visualizer:Julia Sultanova
Rough, light wood and low-hanging white lights set this kitchen interior a world apart. You can also notice a layer of light gray cabinetry, adding variation to the otherwise dark color palette. These elements factor in softness to the black kitchen design.
14. Let the Accessories Do the Talking
Photographer:Mikko Ryhänen
In this black-and-wood creation, the accessories take center stage in adorning the interior. We love the houseplant, but the crockery deserves a special mention for doubling as decor. The light oakwood backdrop further warms the space up.
15. Consider a Matte All Black Kitchen
Visualizer:HDR Designer
Neat square panels perfectly line up to emphasize the stark black minimalism that is at play here. We love how the cabinetry is matte black with no hardware, adding a sense of simplicity. The herb planters are a healthy green addition to bring the otherwise simple space.

Visualizer:Julia Sultanova
Fine lines and stencilling set this monochromatic space apart. Lined by black magnetic lights, black stencils and glossy white facades, it makes its mark on a light wooden floor.
17. Build a Shape Out of Black
Visualizer:Huso
18. Create a Modern Dark Kitchen with Gradients
Visualizer:Mario Nogueira
If you’re wondering how the intrigue in this space is working… It’s the gradients from black, to charcoal, to light grey. White surrounds in the walls and a monochromatic hanging light.

19. Leverage Black Textures
Visualizer:Nefeli Kallianou
One instant way to add interest to a black kitchen is with textures, as seen in this metallic matte kitchen. This accounts for decorative presence in the light and bright space, providing character to an otherwise simple room.

28. Don’t Forget a Black and White Rug

If you’re not in for a complete kitchen renovation, simply painting your cabinets black and adding a black-and-white patterned rug will achieve the purpose! We love how this kitchen keeps sets the base with white and tops it with black.
29. Let the Lighting Make a Statement in the All Black Kitchen
