The NOBIS CAFE ‘project, born in the historic center of the city of Verona, is housed inside a historic building, where the same masonry of the 1500s is brought to the sight to create a contrast to the rest of the room.
We wanted to create a contrast between the historicity of the building and the search for materials with a strong personality.
The DUCHI CAFE Project, born at a suggestive point in the city of Verona, exactly where there was the cloister of the Church of San Fermo (1200 – 1500 DC).
The masonry, the wooden ceilings are original in the period and even the frescoes date back to 1200 and 1500 DC.

Top quality wine is produced with sustainable production methods and careful attention to detail, by a winery with a warm welcome visitors, maturing in underground areas of fragrant oakwood and Corten stell.
The story of a building, very often, that of the family that has lived. The new owners wanted to mold the existing building to have a living space conform to their way of life.
