Apartamento is not the kind of magazine that tells you what furniture you should buy or how you should decorate your flat. It’s quite the other way around: this Spanish-Italian venture is all about having a glimpse at how people organise their daily environment. Voyeurism or admiration? The point is that it’s a real pleasure to browse through living rooms or bed rooms of people involved in creative jobs. There are common aspects: since they tend to live in bigger cities, places are tiny and densely packed with stored information in form of books or pictures but the styles and the moods are very different.
Apartamento is an independent magazine, born out of the will to establish a connection with its readers by portraying interiors, furniture, design, architecture as a mean of personal expression... in a way that is close to the feelings and aesthetics of many new generations, either if you are 18 and just moved out of your parent’s house or you are 45 and thinking of redoing your apartment from scratch. Apartamento is dedicated to the concept of Home and Interiors, comprehending all that makes the place where you live yours: furniture, interior design, books, food, music, architecture, art, gardening...
Apartamento will not show tidy interiors because they don’t exist outside your mum’s imagination. Instead it wants to show how people arrange their homes and the solutions they find to the same problems you have.
