This ancient house in jurmala, Latvia, was designed by local interior designer Agnes Rudzite. Many of the house's extraordinary interiors are inspired by legendary Italian villas of the 1930s and 1940s. Modern details and techniques will not let people forget the present, and make the interior decoration has a sense of relevance and fashion.

Located in the coastal town of Jurmala, 20 kilometres from Riga (the capital of Latvia), this 550 square-meter home — originally built in 1930 — reflects this philosophy that also focuses on making interiors for pleasant living. 

Marble terrazzo floors, lacquered cherry wood arcade and doors, oak parquet and veneers, and green marble portals adorn the different areas of the home, giving an overall feeling of preciousness.  Warm colours and rich textures highlight the historic character of the house .

The architecture from the thirties and Italian villas were the main sources of inspiration for the designers who introduced many colours, materials and details throughout this home while renovating it carefully. One of the biggest challenges consisted of incorporating all modern aspects of life (such as the spa, among others) into an old building where the architecture had to be preserved.
