In the southern Italian Alps opened a new mid century modern hotel,<\/em><\/strong> Il Sereno Lago do Como, a\u00a0sister property to the Christian Liaigre-designed Le Sereno Saint-Barth\u00e9lemy in the Caribbean.\u00a0The new property was designed by the\u00a0cultured hand of Spanish architect Patricia Urquiola that was involved in every detail.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the modernist Casa del Fascio, designed by Italian architect Giuseppe Terragni, Patricia gives a clean architecture to the hotel, creating a\u00a0a series of loggias topped by a flat garden roof. \u201cWhat guests see from the view \u2013 the water, stone, greenery or boats \u2013 is reflected in the interiors of the hotel\u201d says Urquiola. \u201cI have tried to integrate the identity of the place in a contemporary way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those characteristics are evident in the use of local stone Ceppo di Gr\u00e9 and Pietra di Fossena, in the walnut used for rough-cut wall panels, and in the subtle palette of earthy greys and browns, accented with a few greens. Linking the indoor with the outdoor, the architect used\u00a0architectural elements such as the black steel balustrade mesh, which is repeated in the interiors and in the silicone-jointed decking of the hotel\u2019s three Riva boats, made at the brand\u2019s boatyard on the neighbouring Lake Iseo.<\/p>\n

Into the interior design, we can find some\u00a0pieces from Urquiola\u2019s own portfolio of designs for Italian brands such as Cassina, Kettal, Molteni, B&B Italia and Moroso. \u201cI am very proud to be using them\u201d says Urquiola. All the door handles were specially commissioned for the hotel by Olivari, the taps by Axor Hansgrohe, the lighting by Flos and the \u2018Lariana\u2019 bathtub by Agape.<\/p>\n

The entrance door is\u00a020ft-talls and is connected to the\u00a0gardens planted by vertical garden inventor Patrick Blanc, who has also installed three works of art featuring thousands of plants. The guests, also can enjoy of a\u00a0Ristorante Berton Al Lagodown on the lake-level, and the 18m infinity pool, which, set along part of the resort\u2019s 140m shoreline, drops directly into the lake and is complemented by a private beach.<\/p>\n

The restaurant is reached by descending a staircase of \u2018floating\u2019 walnut treads surrounded by a forest of copper-bronze metal rods. Milanese Michelin-starred chef Andrea Berton prepares a menu that offers rich local Lombardian produce along with wines from the Valtellina valley.<\/p>\n

\u201cGuests should feel everything is in its place and there is nothing more than necessary\u201d, \u201cthere is no \u201cwow\u201d effect\u201d, says Urquiola,\u00a0who instead points to a more subtle emotional response.\u00a0Nothing was left to chance: the architect has even thought to design scarves, woven from locally spun silk, for the staff uniforms.<\/p>\n
