Presentation
The Rimini Riviera meets Cuban tradition
Rimini and Havana together return to the 1960s to provide a lively and joyful atmosphere for Mode's guests. A customised wallpaper on a work by Cuban artist Raúl Valdes González, which covers the wall facing the entrance, emotionally characterises the start of the suite's use.
In the living room, bedroom and bathroom, everything is reminiscent of the warm and cosy atmosphere of Havana: from the materials of the furniture and accessories to the recovery of vintage objects to the geometric textures and bright colours, while at the same time linking with the joyful, carefree atmosphere of the Romagna Riviera and contemporary design.
A creative suite, attentive to sustainability in its choices, in line with the philosophy of reuse proper to Cuban culture, but also emblematic of a sustainable 'Second Hand' approach.
Project moodboard
