Sorrento, Amalfi Coast, Italy
Maison La Minervetta
With only twelve rooms, all overlooking the sea and a proliferation of arches, living rooms, dining rooms, and a kitchen that opens onto the terrace, La Minervetta offers the instant atmosphere of a private home. The decorative prejudice of playing with large expanses of ceramic floors gives an overabundance of tone and color.
