About the Project
Casa Piva, the personal residence of Andrew Piva, director at B.E. Architecture, is a refined Melbourne home that blends timeless materials with modern restraint. Designed with deep personal intent, it features a harmonious palette of chalk-toned brick, travertine, and Tuscan oak joinery. Thoughtfully layered and intimate, the home showcases minimalist details like Castella’s bronze Ledge handles, which enhance the tactile and visual experience without overpowering it. Sustainability, craftsmanship, and longevity are central themes, with a focus on materials that age gracefully and spaces that evolve. Casa Piva is a quiet, enduring expression of design integrity and personal vision.
