English Version | Home, wonderful home

A home is more than a place that protects us from the outside elements and the world. A home is a safe place where we can be fully ourselves. And Baxter knows how to make it that way.

With a bunch of keys in hand we mark the beginning of a new era, a blank canvas from which we start a new chapter in our lives. We have the opportunity to create something incredible, to transform an empty room into a living space that breathes its own identity. For Baxter, that's what home is, not just a house, but a project of our own, where we leave part of ourselves. It is with this conviction that Baxter Lago emerges, a concept where this notion of home is materialized, in a journey where the history of architecture is united to contemporary elements. This is how a true home is born: more than an apartment, or a house, it should be the sensation we have when we step barefoot on the Himani carpet, hand-woven as if it were a meticulous work of art.

We stand at the doorway, on a skylight that sets us free, and are welcomed by an exotic wallpaper that exudes a pure energy - we feel vibrant, enveloped by nature. The heart of the home is lightly illuminated by two Nuvola lamps, made of fiberglass that emits a tender light that delicately covers the soft surfaces of the furniture that touches us with tenderness.

At Baxter all items follow this line of thought, with the goal of making something as ours as we make it ourselves - and that is the greatest transformation. The pieces strike a balance between Italian tradition and the innovations of modern interior design, thus allowing us to offer a panoply of options that have one thing in common: the beauty of the inspiration drawn from the town of Como, which extends to the outside. All the senses are awakened when you bring an armchair onto a balcony, where its softness and comfort contrast with the movement and liveliness of the view of the mountains. A coffee table ceases to be a token of serenity when it moves from the living room to the garden, where it comes to life as an aid to a more liberated side that we let out when we put a foot in the grass ourselves. Baxter has materialized the feeling of true home in Lake Como, in a location where the landscape above the Alps becomes the perfect stage to showcase the essence of Italian beauty - that which we can make our own in the place we call home.
