Floor Rugs are placed around seating and circulation areas to create both intimate zones within the free plan and also a flow through the transitions zones. For example there is a row of rugs between the Fire place area and Dining Room and a large long rug in the area that connects the two sitting areas and the winter garden.
Furniture is placed in groups to form intimate zones
within the free plan. Each group is bordered by a
combination of walls and columns.
Artwork is an integral component of the Villa Mairea
interior and as well as the client's abundant
collection of paintings and sculptures, Alto's
fireplace detail and ornamented columns also
contribute to the collection.
The ceiling within the 'conservatory' area of Villa Mairea is largely lined with timber and in the public area there is only one instance of ceiling lights which is a low pendant over the coffee table of the south west sitting area. The lighting is otherwise created with floor and table lamps which create ambience within the seating areas as well as preserving the timber lined ceiling as perhaps another sculptural element. There are ceiling mounted lights and ceiling pendants within the entry and dining hall areas.
