-DESIGN SECTION
Savona 18 Suites was converted from a typical housing of Milan, more than one century old, to a hotel and is therefore the result of a remarkable renovation project by designer Aldo Cibic, focused on preserving the architectural design of the historic building, i.e. a characteristic example of a Milanese courtyard representing the “style” of Milan’s residential housings with communal balconies, which were typical of the early 20th century. The prestigious Design Hotel, located in the Navigli district of Milan, not far from via Tortona, with its modern but gracious style, is ideally situated in one of the city’s most bustling and cosmopolitan districts, full of bars and restaurants, which today has become a landmark of design and fashion, hosting unique events that attract many visitors all year round. The hotel is furnished with a full range of fine design items by renowned designer Aldo Cibic.
DESIGN
A perfect balance between the retro architecture of the building, skilfully renovated without altering its original design, and contemporary furnishings and décor.
-DESIGN STORE
Each room of Savona 18 Suites has different furnishing elements: all vintage items are unique pieces, coming from Italy and other parts of the world, individually selected by the owners in cooperation with a curator of vintage items. During their stay, guests can inquire about the history of each item at the reception desk and may buy them if they wish. Below is a preview of the items in the rooms.
