Résumé

Today's premier hotels have evolved into complex organisms that prompt a variety of different ways of addressing the rising expectations of the clientele, and each new design seeks to establish a unique figurative and semantic image. The interiors presented in this book offer a broad and complex panorama in which projects that reinterpret the idea of luxury coexist with others that elaborate entirely novel blueprints and types of comfort. Consequently we see fully customised architecture vying with refurbished existing buildings in close relationship with the uniquely Italian context of fine historical buildings and superb landscapes.
