The Concept

The Vestibule by Sasha Adler reimagines the palazzo’s entrance as a contemporary Venetian courtyard inspired by the Palazzo Ducale. More than a transitional space, it is designed to encourage gathering, conversation, and shared arrival. A monumental sculptural metal tree anchors the room, while handcrafted materials, artisanal pieces, and the preserved mural reflect Venice’s legacy of craftsmanship and connection.


Opening off the entrance, the Reading Room is conceived as a more intimate Venetian retreat inspired by the layered salons of historic palazzi. Deep greens, warm saddle leather, a contemporary Murano glass chandelier, and antique glass cabinetry create a refined, liveable space shaped by conversation, contemplation, and the quiet ritual of everyday life.
