Imbibed with the well-being of altitude, “Alto“ alternates between the rough and uncut and the solid and massive - everything is a purification of style, and design is king.

Noble materials: maple furniture and bleached oak floors off-set the taupe surfaces - an inter-play of light and shadow.

Social interaction and flexibility with lounge-bar “attitude“: a large bar-table and a sofa area, warmed by a table-hearth. The buffet and bistrot tables beckon to each other. The food takes flight - in this age of the global village, it is essential to try astonishing combinations of forgotten origins - just like the Kingdom of Piedmont.
