The exquisite beauty of natural stone and the skilful craft of stonemasonry are brought to the fore in this modern family home, with sculptural elements that are compelling on their own, and even more impressive together. Scalpellino House celebrates the Bartucca family’s legacy of stonemasonry, with stone being the showpiece of every room. Precise design detailing and challenging craftsmanship glorify the beauty and character of the stone, creating truly unique joinery and spaces that elevate and enhance the pristine materiality. Honed bluestone connects the entrance, spine wall and staircase, and dramatic Cosmic Gold granite unifies the kitchen, dining and living area. The bathrooms and powder room are immersive spaces enveloped with marble. Elba is soft and calming in the ground-floor bathrooms, while Concordia is striking and theatrical in the powder room.

We are inspired by the people we meet, and the relationships we keep.
Biasol (pronounced ‘b–are–zoul’) is a multidisciplinary design studio based in Melbourne. With a focus on the design of interior spaces, building typologies, products, and branded environments, we work collaboratively with Australian and international clients to realise spaces and experiences that merge the intricacies of design to deliver considered outcomes that engage both physically and emotionally.
Biasol was established in 2012 by Jean-Pierre Biasol whose Italian heritage and broader European educational influences nurtured a resonance and respect for the naturally diverse working processes common within European design practices. The Biasol approach draws on many complementary disciplines to create experiences that surpass expectation, harnessing intuitive, beautiful and highly engaging environments, products and brands.
