Renewal without denying: this is the challenge of making the best of an architectural plan for redefining identity, meeting the need for new design aspects, together with safety and energy efficiency. The choice of every material, color, shape and finishing is designed to characterize the building’s assembly in an impressive and elegant way, and to enhance the details in the most modern way possible.

The particular facade claddings are made of rust-colored steel corten and the door and windows frames have EBE 65 elbows in galvanized steel. The wide motorized glass window of the restaurant allows you to enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of Cremona. The internal staircase is made of crude iron, while the ceilings in the hall are shiny metal, for a mirror effect of great impact.

THE RESULT

An original aesthetic that intrigues and captures, guiding those who look through the stages of a visual path that can revolutionize the story as it envelops.
