Located in Milan’s Brera district on the site of a former bakery, its stylish interior is awash with oceanic influences courtesy of Italian designer Marsica Fossati.
Venetian solar blinds mimic the cabin of a ship, while round mirrors are shaped like maritime portholes. Hermès wallpaper and plush velvet seating create a frisson of texture and a louche elegance best enjoyed at night, all wrapped in the designer’s inimitable palette of deep blues, cool greys and chic gold accents. A hit with even the most discerning of Milan’s diners, the restaurant’s private Submarine room makes an intimate setting to enjoy the kitchen’s signature selection.
Each room is a surprise. Entering the bathroom, thanks to the brighter light and the customized wallpaper printed with waves, the client has the impression of stepping out onto the deck of the ship and being surrounded by the ocean.
The newest rooms, designed in 2019, mark the culmination of this journey in the middle of the sea. The sea turns pale blue, the water is shallower until you get to the pirate island surrounded by palm trees and tropical birds. Thanks to the art- neon representing a skull, designed by the artist Dai Dai Tran, the guest senses that a pirate has already passed through there.
