This year is a singular New Year's Eve. A well-known entrepreneur and a few select friends.

They wanted the villa all for themselves. For cooking and celebrating. Given the confidentiality and intimacy of the matter, we wanted to photograph only the most unfortunate of them. Two huge lobsters ended up on our stove.

Yet another occasion in which the villa is also suitable for small groups (amici, colleagues, companions, team aziendali, employees or crew for filming) who shy away from restaurants, farmhouses, crowded hotels or public places but they want an intimate place and theirs where to be in peace. In front of the fireplace crackling in winter or at the side of the Japanese pond in estate.

In this case they enjoyed cooking but for the less accustomed we have all kinds of banqueting.

Keep in touch.

Annalisa celebrates with her friends. Who made the classic video without his knowledge. From his first cries to the present day. The villa as usual welcomes them with its own design mood and lights. In addition to the first fireplace of the season. A minimum amount of preparation is needed and here gerberas appear, splashbacks and spandrels.

In the company of Donna Summer, Boney. M and Saturday night fever, obligatory bell-bottom dress code, wig and glasses. But all the various seventies styles were well interpreted. With a food truck in the park and a looping video full of photographs to tell the life of the birthday girl created based on the unforgettable theme song of 'Beware of those two’ con Tony Curtis e Roger Moore. (For the gorgeous nostalgic fifty year olds see below :-))

Between appetizers, chatting and dancing, the evening went off without a hitch under the watchful eye of Tony Manero.

Hen party. Here is the future bride, unaware of everything, try your hand at cupcakes. Fun cooking lesson with a professional cook. Top quality ingredients, lots of fun and the irreplaceable Bimbi. All in nature. Refreshments and ritual photos follow parcO

Emotional awakening rears its ugly head again villa. The day after the first 'setting' meeting, some weeks ago, what we are describing is a very focused day. Kissed by a dewy dawn and accompanied by suitable music, from the dance, from the quartz bells and above all from lots and lots of nature very close to the city. Here's the story (video) photography that reaches one of the most intense moments who

A day of meditation in the villa, surround yourself from nature. Protected by the greenery of the park, visiting maples, oaks, ginkgo, limes, viburni, tulip trees and magnolias, caressed by the spring wind that barely dampens the heat of a finally dry spring, the participants alternated moments of meditation with refreshing breaks based on fruit and herbal teas. All in this natural arena away from the noise of the outside world but close to the city. A few detours to the Japanese lake and then ending up embraced by the large Himalayan cedars to the sound of quartz bells. A nice experience for the villa, thanks to Chiara and al his project, thanks to Diana ed a ZeroScuse Lab . Click on the photos to enlarge the gallery.

Guests say they resemble Portuguese azulejo tiles. To some they remind Provence or Sicily. But the truth is another. A tour of the Museum of Santa Caterina (Treviso) it gave us a curiosity and in looking for the fathers of these coverings we ended up at Ceramics Museum of Faenza where we found our own tiles. But let's go in order.

Giretto al St Catherine's Museum of Treviso where, between culture and popular traditions, we find a stand dedicated to The Painted City of Treviso, from the homonymous in-depth study of the decorations in Treviso over the period from the 13th to the 21st century. The accompanying text reads : ” The same taste manifests itself in the exteriors of the Treviso buildings, he also expressed himself in the interiors with the application of colors and decorations on every wall or wooden surface available, from floor to ceiling”.

At the museum and in the kitchen

Even though we don't have frescoed surfaces, we enjoyed seeing the graphic similarities between the ancient Treviso wall decorations and the hand-painted tiles in our kitchen (produces. Seagulls).

Then a doubt: being that Gabbianelli (who his own story) it is a historical and particular brand, we got to the bottom of it by discovering that our tiles are present at the Ceramics Museum of Faenza and exactly who. Seagulls he collaborated with Giò Ponti, Enzo Mari, Italo Lupi e, udite udite, also with the young designers and planners of the villa Roberto Pamio and Renato Toso.

Let's start with the Treviso museum. Here are the pictures of the decorations.

The kitchen of the Villa. Details.

The big kitchen, flanked by a very useful kitchen sbratta where we find worktops and appliances, it is studded with jumbled tiles. Where a single tile repeated several times would have donated an order given by composure and repetitiveness, here some lucid madness – which also peeks out elsewhere in the villa – he gave the order to place them at random, creating an unsettling game and colors that are still current.

Gabbianelli catalogues. Circa early 70's

Thanks to Museum of Ceramics of Faenza, to the kind director Claudia Casali and the librarian Marcela Kubovova we went back to the series ‘ Hand decorated‘ by Gabbianelli that covers our kitchen. The series remained in production for about a decade. In the 'sbratta kitchen’ instead we have the series ‘cabochon‘ designed by Renato Toso in 1973 (Studio Pamio-Toso) also decorated by hand and in which opposite angles of the same color on square tiles led to combinations (quasi) infinite. In the following images the original catalogues Seagulls. (click on the images to enlarge)

What to say? A beautiful adventure 'coated’ (it is appropriate to say) of pleasant surprises. Historical courses and appeals.

Lui ha 70 years. Ma non li dimostra. Lei gli ha fatto una sorpresa. Gli ha fatto trovare un mare di candele. Ma non era l’unico ingrediente.

A sax that duets with the guests to the sound of great rock pieces zigzagging between candles is certainly a great sight. For the other half Silvia has organized everything to perfection. Welcome corner & bar, then hams in the cradle, tartare & prawns in sauce, octopus, salmon, sautéed macaroni, hamburgherino al cheddar, torta, backsplashes of pancakes and crostoli, ballo e poi hotdog e frittolin a notte fonda. I quasi quaranta invitati liberi di usare i diversi piani della villa, oltre agli esterni. La possibilità del girovagare in una location exclusive. L’immancabile fireplace di fronte al quale ballare anni 70-90 and not only.

Cooking team building with the company.

Plan: upon arrival an initial welcome with zen cake (which never hurts and then goes well with the Japanese lake 🙂 ), followed by projection of projects/results/strategies for the future. We then divide into teams and have fun cooking and then presenting our dishes. Chalkboards appear, chalks and prosecco that accompany the 'fearable’ jury created on the spot and which churns out votes both on the food itself and on the way of presenting it and telling it through jokes and movie quotes (they remember The Big Binge, Eating Drinking man woman, Chocolat, Ratatouille and the inevitable turtle broth ‘ Babette's Feast)

Guaranteed fun. In outline a dedicated chef, dinner in front of the fireplace, the spirits corner and much more.

From 'design addicted' what we are, here is the latest arrival. He is 'Ulysses' designed by Ivan Loss for Sandrigarden in the early 1980s. It is a walking stool, jaunty and ideal for picnics ( quanto mai azzeccato qui nel park) trips or conversations in the countryside. Look at the 'brochure' – in those days it was called that – originale nell’immagine finale in cui ne vengono spiegati gli usi. Un pezzo iconico figlio di quell’epoca ed ora a disposizione dei nostri ospiti, anzi delle loro terga :-). E poi è pure rosso.

Ci piace lavorare al nostro particolare mood così diverso dalla sontuosità e dallo storytelling nobile delle ville venete. Noi siamo easy, sbarazzini, moderni.

Mayors, assessors, city ​​councilors, Branded banks and entrepreneurs in the villa for a branded meeting Venetex e Tiscali on the digitization of the territory, the exchange, and maintaining the wealth of companies on the spot.

Gorgeous evening, networking of level, impeccable catering, fully stocked open bar. This is the mood we like so much. ideal for companies that want to offer a format similar to their own customers or ai employees or even for a cooking team building. E, last but not least,, kissed by the sunset.

No, it is not a photomontage. The trees are so close to the villa that the low light of dawn draws shadows on the entire east wall. Outside the breakfast rooms, the croissants with juice, pane, butter, jam and bubbling cucumber!

Ideal menu also for business breakfast which we hope, soon, to resume. 😎😜

From the windows to the south. This evening.

They select the catering for your next relaxing business event, format born in the villa to simplify the meeting of ideas and lenders.

How to decide? The one is to taste. And riassaggiare.

Sometimes they reaffirm. Reordering the archives, some commemorative bottles of the past emerge. Of an event dedicated to Afra and Tobia Scarpa who, making wine, they had made a good year available. Business, architecture and conviviality all under one roof.
