Italy is a country synonymous with style and beauty in every aspect of life: the rich history of Rome, the Renaissance art of Florence, the graceful canals of Venice, the haute couture of Milan, Bologna’s signature pasta alla bolognese, the colorful architecture of Portofino, and the flashing blue waters of Capri and the Amalfi Coast, among others. Italians themselves live effortlessly amidst all this splendor, instinctively knowing the type of outfit to throw on, the design element to balance, or the delicious ingredient to add.

Daria Reina and Andrea Ferolla, a sensitive and often nostalgic couple for their homeland, take readers on an Italian’s tour of Italy, off the main tourist routes and into hidden or off-the-grid side streets, into lesser-known corners with the quintessential details that define timeless Italian style. Discover the Sassi cave dwellings etched into the mountainside of Matera; admire the characteristic red-orange walls of the Emilia Romagna region; and examine the birds carved at the Grand Hotel Ambasciatori in Sorrento, so realistically they could fly off the page. Reina and Ferolla invite readers to discover the special moments and places that reveal an intimate portrait of one of the world’s most sought-after destinations, and Ferolla’s classic illustrations add another level of personality to the journey.

Andrea Ferolla and Daria Reina are a couple in life and in creation. He is Italian, she is French-Italian. Together they imagine, design and create objects. With the help of their precious team, they bring to life projects and events to share and transmit in every possible way their sense of art, beauty and style.

Italian craftsmanship, a selection of exquisite materials and a well-balanced blend of finesse spirit. Just like this book, it is the expression of their compulsive love for an authentic Italian lifestyle and the perfect way to discover their vision.
