The Italian Connection: Where Passion Meets Precision

There's something undeniably alluring about Italian design. Maybe it's the way Italians understand that life should be beautiful, that everyday moments deserve elegant settings, that comfort andsophistication aren't mutually exclusive. Michael London has spent years studying and working with Italian artisans, absorbing not just their techniques but their philosophy.

At The Unionville, this Italian influence appears in unexpected ways. It's in the way natural light flows through carefully positioned windows, creating different moods throughout the day. It's in the rich textures that invite touch ‒ smooth marble countertops that feel cool under your fingertips, warm wood cabinetry that adds depth and character to every room.

The color palettes draw inspiration from Italian landscapes ‒ the warm earth tones of Tuscan hillsides,the deep blues of the Mediterranean, the soft grays of Roman stone. These aren't colors that shout forattention; they're colors that create a sense of calm and sophistication that never goes out of style.

Italian craftsmanship traditions influence every detail, from the way cabinet doors close with a whisper-soft touch to the precision of tile installations that create seamless, flowing surfaces. This isn't about showing off ‒ it's about creating an environment where quality is evident in everyinteraction with your space.

Lighting design at The Unionville goes far beyond simply illuminating spaces. Different types of lighting serve different purposes throughout the day, from energizing morning light that helps you start yourday to warm evening ambiance that promotes relaxation.
