IL LUOGO DI AIMO E NADIA
The renovated 2 stars restaurant in Milan
Il Luogo di Aimo e Nadia is a symbol of Italian culinary excellence known throughout the world since 1962. The Milan’s 2-star restaurant presents restyled interiors and a new space dedicated to workshops and master classes.
Tiziano Vudafieri and Claudio Saverino have designed a cosy place - enriched with erudite references and design details. They have interpreted the history and the character of the place to define a bright, intimate space.
Signs from the past convey a sense of continuity with the values that have made Il Luogo di Aimo e Nadia a benchmark of Italian gastronomic culture. The warm tones of canaletto walnut define the rooms, while fabrics - whose colours reflect those of the Milanese residential district where the restaurant is located - wrap round and decorate the space.
The project features also of new space: the Theatrum of flavours, a place designed around local ingredients and raw materials. The aim was to enhance the convivial aspect of the space, through the choice of strong materials and colours.
The space is dominated by the imposing cedar wood table with iron base, and two lighting installations - designed by Vudafieri Saverino Partners - which are reflected in the magnificent Arclinea kitchen.
