Vibrant eclectic home interior of awarded Italian multi-disciplined architect/designer Teresa Sapey who lives and works internationally from Madrid, Spain. A colorful juxtaposition of mid-century modern classics, pop art, family heirlooms, and contemporary designs and furnishings—including marvelous graphic rugs designed by Teresa herself (part of her past product line) create a lively environment, a nod to her playful personality.

See more of Teresa’s casa on flickr plus read an interview (2011) with her in Spanish about her high-low furnished home and design ethos on yaencontre.com. (The interview copy is worth plugging into Google translate for those of us non-Spanish speakers.)

A look at Teresa’s award-winning commercial projects:
