Marcante Testa’s singular approach to interiors offers a melange of curious materials, unusual colour combinations and unexpected details every single time. The spaces they create are playful and serious, rigorous and loose, calculated and spontaneous in equal measure… Extreme love all around, and this warm and colourful Parisian home is no exception. 

In their signature style, the Turin-based practice—founded in 2014 by Andrea Marcante and Adelaide Testa—has injected the interior with a sense of playful whimsy and loads of personality, while maintaining a level of restrain and sophistication. The subtle complexity of the aesthetic where old-school references meet refined modernity deliver a series of delightful surprises around every corner. Brave colours, nana patterns, high-brow art and design pieces are held together by clean volumes, monolithic shapes and sharp detailing, bringing disparate design languages seamlessly together into a cohesive and unique interior. 

The owner, Pascal Revert, is the director of a London gallery dedicated to contemporary African art and design. Following the client's request, Marcante Testa created a rich layered home, full of influences and very comfortable. The ultimate master of mixing things and creating surprises, Marcante Testa's unique aesthetic stands out in the world of sometimes cookie-cutter interior design.
