Celia Solf’s Modern Kitchen in South Tyrol
In a 1904 house in Bolzano, Italy, creative director Celia Solf and her husband, hotelier Moritz Dissertori, have created a kitchen that balances early 20th-century character with spare utility. The couple moved from Berlin to South Tyrol in 2023, the couple opened the wall between the kitchen and dining room, then painted the interiors a soft white. They moved in just as the renovation wrapped—days before welcoming their baby. Original terrazzo floors remain in the kitchen, hallway, and bath; over 100-year-old pine planks run underfoot elsewhere for a dose of regional history.
After relocating to Italy, Solf was researching for her interiors work and discovered Very Simple Kitchen, collaborating with them directly to create a generously scaled stainless steel setup tailored to the room. The result is pared back but warm: industrial steel set against timeworn surfaces, globe lights overhead, and a few thoughtfully sourced vintage pieces. It’s a kitchen assembled quickly at a turning point—join us for a closer look.
