P8 Villa in Marsala Showcases A Modern Take on Margraf Marble

In Marsala in the Province of Trapani, architects Piero Laudicina and Maurizio Giammarinaro have showcased the properties of Margraf marble by making it one of the key interior and exterior materials in the new P8 villa. This divine spot basks in the warm Sicilian sunshine and the light reflects on the white, bush-hammered Pietra Ducale marble flooring inside, which is juxtaposed with the unique elegance of brushed Grigio Antracite flooring.

The project revolves around links and contrasts between the interior and the exterior, lights and shadows. Marble performs the architectural function of underlining the perfect harmony between the spaces with playful intertwining effects. The shades of dark grey from inside extend seemingly randomly towards the lighter hues of the outdoor flooring and vice versa.
