A kitchen with black and white tiles, in Bellwoods Residence.

Bellwoods Residence

Designed as a personal expression of Audax’s Human Architecture philosophy, Bellwoods Kitchen is the heart of principals Gianpiero Pugliese and Mariya Naumov’s home, seamlessly merging timeless European elegance with modern functionality. Inspired by Johannes Vermeer’s 17th-century interiors, the space evokes warmth and artistry through checkered Bardiglio and Bianco Carrara marble flooring, white oak cabinetry, and antique accents. From the Lacanche stove with a mantel-style hood to the custom Florentine lighting and brass fixtures, every element is carefully curated to strike a perfect balance between heritage and contemporary living.

A farmhouse table replaces the traditional island to foster intimacy, while hidden storage and state-of-the-art appliances maintain a clean, uninterrupted aesthetic. The adjoining sitting area, complete with a fireplace and terrace, extends the experience outdoors, making the kitchen more than a place to cook—it is a living space that enriches everyday moments with beauty, history, and craftsmanship.
