La Torretta

by

Torretta, or small tower in English, is a 32 sqm (344 square foot) duplex. It is the only room of Palazzo Daniele that has the privilege to have direct access to its grand courtyard, and therefore to its gardens.

On the groundfloor, a living area has a selection of exquisite art and design, including two tripoline chairs and a Vitra butterfly stool. On the walls, photos by artists Christodoulos Panayotou and Sim Way Kim, and a sculpture by LA based artist Bri Williams. Should you read Italian, you’d find also a collection of 500 volumes published in the 30s with the great classic of literature. 

An old, small but extremely refined red marble staircase brings to the bedroom on the first floor, with its en suite bathroom. Here, a sculpture by Francesco Arena and a painting by Francis Offmann are the only concession to the monastic décor.

Black Suite

by

Passing through the frescoed halls of Palazzo Daniele and opening an ancient secret door, a steep stone staircase leads to an invisible black cube with clean aesthetics, furnished with minimal design, important artworks by such artists as Thea Djordjadze and Francesco Arena, and a few pieces that evoke memories.

This contemporary 85 sqm penthouse is perched atop the palazzo and has a commanding view of the property. The living room, an urban jungle, is furnished with a Lirico Sofa by Driade and a fully furnished kitchen. In the bedroom, dramatically draped linen hides the wardrobe and the minimal bathroom with freestanding washbasin.

The biggest thrill, though, is the 1500sqm private terrace, an outdoor space that circles the palazzo central courtyard.

Steeped in Italian history, the suites feature frescoed ceilings and original floors from the 19th century as well as views of the central piazzetta of Gagliano del Capo.

History and modernity combine to stunning effect in the suites, which have black steel-framed wardrobes custom-made by Ludovica + Roberto Palomba as well as contemporary master artworks such as a lightbox by Simon d’Exea illuminating the room, lamp by Luigi Presicce, Pino Pascali’s picture taken by Claudio Abate, Eva Jospin’s wreath, Carla Accardi’s lithography, Niccolo Gandolfi’s photo and Christian Frosi’s photo.

Junior Suite

Facing the lush courtyard, the Junior Suites feature masterpieces by celebrated artists, and most boast frescoed ceilings and original floors from the 19th century.

The custom made minimalistic furnishings such as black steel framed wardrobes enhance the beauty of the aristocratic history. The paired-back style strengthens the power of the contrast between history, contemporary art and function.

Royal Junior Suite

by

The highlight of the Royal Junior Suite is its bathroom, conceived as an art installation, where a rainshower falls from a 6-meter high ceiling on a basin designed by Italian artist Andrea Sala.

The Royal Junior Suite showcases a lightbox by Simon d’Exea that’s both an art piece as well as functional at the same time, illuminating the room. The uniqueness of this Suite is the royal bath with its 6 meters high rain shower and basin designed by the iconic Italian artist Andrea Sala, a livable art installation. Special bathroom features also include twin sinks from Ceramica Flaminia and backlit mirrors. Design, contemporary art and history coexist in order to convey a one-of-a-kind energy.
