A small hotel just a few steps from the historic center of the baroque town of Noto. The style that accompanied the entire design process is a mix of tradition and modernity. Typical elements of the local tradition characterize the environments giving a warm and ancient flavor. There is vibe of Sicily. The idea was to create places with a strong identity but at the same time as flexible, welcoming and suitable for a demanding clientele. “Filinona” includes three rooms, different in surface and characteristics, distributed on two levels thanks to a staircase entirely covered with local white stone. Each room has details and peculiarities that make it unique and special, in fact each of the three rooms is inspired by an element of local popular culture: Sicilian cards, wicker baskets, colorful ceramic plates.
The aim was to reproduce with objects, plants and ancient tools a climate capable of stimulating the client to know the traditions, colors and Sicilian artisan culture.
