FROM VILLA BORNELLO TO THE BRION TOMB. ONE TOUR ALL’ SECOND '900 ARCHITECTURE

  • December 13, 2022

They have been telling us for some time that we should also wink at tourism.

Here we are.

Original tour in two steps to the architecture of the second half of the 20th century the one that starts from our villa and arrives at the Brion Tomb. Organized together with the lords of Meter, always non-trivial in their offer, provides for the meeting in the villa for the visit and breakfast to then leave refreshed towards the masterpiece of Carlo Scarpa who decided to be buried there.

The initial purpose of the tour was to leave Villa Bornello to visit residences, factories and architectural sites in Treviso of the second half of 900 (especially of the period 1960-1985) preferably wanted by private clients, united from having believed in architecture as a language creator of places with a strong identity, and from the search for one's own quality of life and a representative place for one's business. Places still modern today. *

Often these patrons were entrepreneurs (as in the case of our villa and the Brion tomb) of the famous North East Model, and it is not out of place to think that these works are in a certain sense allied with the Venetian villas of which they share the territory. The agricultural and landowner use of the Venetian villa is not naturally present in the residences of the wealthy Venetians of the 1960s or 70, young during the war and hit by the economic boom, but they certainly have in common the fact that they were also designed to flaunt a census. The one and the other as representative residences. Hence the contact, 500 years ago as a few decades ago, to well-known architects. Scarpa, Morassutti, surplus, Fontana, Rossi, Goria, Porters&Flag, twin, Pamio, just to name a few of the Treviso area.

Back to our day. The breakfast, ideal opportunity to recharge your batteries and get to know the other participants. This will be followed by a visit to our villa designed by Roberto Pamio in the same years as the Brion Tomb, with its particular spaces, the double-height central hall, the grand monumental staircase, the eccentric cone section in the east wall and the unique "in casa" pond. All embraced by a hectare and a half of parkland.

We then move to the municipality of Altivole and immerse ourselves in the Brion Tomb, a monumental site of recent FAI heritage, with its obvious traits related to modernism, to brutalism, to Venetian art and oriental philosophies.

*It is not excluded that in the future the tour will last the whole day with a visit to other recent architectures.

HOST EFFECT. EVENT IN VILLA WITH COOK ON SIGHT’

  • December 7, 2022

Recipes, ingredients, come, cooked together with you and your guests. Spices and perfumes like from one of those drugstores of yesteryear
who held the door open to spring. You are with your guests in a environment only yours and confidential. Surrounded by greenery and design.

Why at the restaurant? Make it weird. Do it in the villa.

Host effect‘ is our new format for individuals and companies looking for something different from the classic restaurant, in which the cooks exploit the environments of the villa and they cook for you on sight, conversing and illustrating foods, wines and pairings. Like the hosts of once upon a time, you risk seeing them grab a chair and sit down nearby to explain to you why that Amarone marries so well the cut or the secrets of a roner with its slow cooking. All having the villa exclusively. A return to the conviviality and slowness of a time when you want to feel good in an exclusive and open space environment with a kitchen that becomes your kitchen. Immersed in greenery and tranquility, away from the crowds, surrounded by design or, for once, not confined to the table of a restaurant or the lobby of a convention center. Choose the menu first. Tailored. The mood too. You have the villa exclusively. A stone's throw from Treviso.

With a chef of your own who cooks for you on sight.

A group of friends or customers to give away a lunch for a few? Think of a simple aperitif, something quick or an important fish dinner? You are a professional or a company and you want to amaze or involve your people’ in a different environment than usual? A cooking lesson o un cooking team buiding? You want to give your customers a different evening than usual, to your potential customers or your employees? To finish, cognac and cigar in front of the fireplace or in front of the park?
