This STRAF project, encompassing a stunning hotel and vibrant bar, is an architectural and artistic gem. Chosen for their natural components, the materials making up the hotel (such as burnished brass, oxidized copper, concrete and mirrored walls, and industrial iron panels) evoke sophisticated tastes. Moving away from clichéd hotel concepts, STRAF has personalized the design of the rooms to expand spaces with illusionary perspectives. “I imagine the STRAF hotel as a type of installation; a concept from which I began to extract a multitude of elements associated with contemporary art,” said architect and interior designer Vincenzo de Cotiis.
• Every week, guests can enjoy a DJ set and live music.
• The hotel treats guests to five well-being rooms and seven relaxation rooms—all worth exploring for aromatherapy, massage chairs, and chromotherapy.
• Relax on the vintage brown leather sofa at STRAFbar and mingle with likeminded guests.
