I’ve stayed in a Claudio Silvestrin apartment since I was 26, and I love those types of palettes and that’s my opinion… I loved our creative process.

I like the strong and austere language of Claudio Silvestrin’s architecture – a complexity behind a simplicity that is so unspectacular, so understated, as to render it spectacular.

Contemporary art presents the architect with a challenge, to design a space in which to exhibit and enhance works that are both complex in form and difficult to define.
Claudio Silvestrin has won this challenge for the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo foundation, creating an ‘Architecture’ that maintains its own identity while conducting a dialogue with art and its metamorphosis.

The austerity of the design of our house in Mallorca initially intimidates visitors. While they profess to like it they consider it too radical to live in. Over time, however, they find it soothing precisely because of the clarity and logic of its design and because of the absence of any visual noise. Not to mention the warmness of the earthy colours wanted by Claudio. Many say that it offers a spiritual experience.

His understanding of space is exceptional.

Claudio Silvestrin is like a prophet from the universe – his unique sense of architecture and fashion is beyond the epoch.
