Parentesi, in Frattamaggiore, near Naples, has a crescent moon layout, designed by the architect Carmine Abate through a mixture of oriental inspirations, bright colors, different epochs and many materials, ranging from Vienna straw to paneling, wallpapers with oriental themes to wood or lacquer, all the way to facings by Ceramica Vogue utilized in the entire venue and the small restroom.
The floor, which adds forceful character to the entire facility, produces an optical effect thanks to the herringbone tiles from the Interni series, with a satin finish in a format of 5×20 cm, with checkerboard colors of Ice White and Black.
The restroom, entirely clad in tile (also on the ceiling) with a format of 10×10 cm, from the Interni series, is in total black, where the sole touch of color is the bright yellow of the cabinet supporting the washstands, which are also in black.
