Albed Redefines the Spaces of a Luxury Penthouse Overlooking the Adriatic

In the heart of Riccione, with panoramic views of the Adriatic Sea, lies the JC Penthouse – a sophisticated example of contemporary living designed by architect Giada Spano.

Fully renovated, the residence was conceived as a harmonious narrative of rhythm, materials, and the interplay between interior and exterior space.

The spatial layout was completely redesigned to meet the evolving needs of its owners, enabling a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas. Natural light and carefully chosen materials define the hierarchy of spaces, while partitions are reduced to a minimum, emphasizing the home’s airiness and spatial flow. At the core is an open-plan living area with a kitchen, where a satin steel island, extruded terracotta elements, and carefully selected ceramics create a refined atmosphere that naturally extends onto the terrace through expansive glass openings.

Within this architectural language, Albed partition systems play a pivotal role. Two distinct solutions from the Quadra collection enhance the elegance and spatial dynamics: a sliding partition with black lacquered aluminum profiles and bronzed smoked glass panels separates the kitchen from the living room, mounted on a ceiling track for visual cohesion. In the sleeping quarters, the transition between the master bedroom and bathroom is created using sliding panels in natural aluminum and pleated glass, whose texture mimics a delicate textile curtain woven with vertical lines.

"I don’t believe in standard solutions – every space has its own unique character and deserves a personalized approach," says Giada Spano.
"My goal is to create functional and aesthetically powerful environments with a distinct identity. In Albed, I’ve found a partner who truly understands and supports authentic design expression."
