Italian Chic
Coffee table book, guiding readers through Italy’s hidden gems and lesser-known corners, 280 pages, 200+ illustrations, silk hardcover.
Italy is synonymous with style and beauty in all aspects of life: the rich history of Rome, the Renaissance art of Florence, the graceful canals of Venice, the high fashion of Milan, the signature pasta alla bolognese of Bologna, the colorful architecture of Portofino and the sparkling blue waters of Capri and the Amalfi Coast, among many others. Daria Reina and Andrea Ferolla, sensitive and often nostalgic lovers of their home country, take readers on a journey through an Italian's Italy. This tour ventures beyond the well-trodden tourist paths to hidden side streets and off-the-grid locations, filled with the timeless details that define Italian style. Explore the Sassi cave dwellings carved into the mountainside of Matera; admire the red-orange walls characteristic of the Emilia-Romagna region; and examine the intricately carved birds at Sorrento's Grand Hotel Ambasciatori, so lifelike they seem ready to take flight. Reina and Ferolla invite readers to discover these special moments and places, revealing an intimate portrait of one of the world’s most treasured destinations. Ferolla’s classic illustrations add another layer of charm and personality to the experience.
