Crafting of Splendido
Behind the scenes of our hotel’s new chapter
Meet Gio Bressana
Step into Gio Bressana’s distinctive world of beautiful frescoes. From maestro Caravaggio to contemporary music, sources of inspiration are aplenty for the painter, who adds splendid hues of blue, ochre yellow and terracotta to the walls and furniture of the hotel’s interiors.
Meet Martin Brudnizki
For the first phase of our renovation, meet Martin Brudnizki, the mastermind behind our new interior. Alike a painter, he reimagines Splendido’s accommodations with a balanced colour palette, terrazzo pieces and midollino weave, where headboard fabric and classic furniture tell the vivid stories of Portofino.
