The three Roman entrepreneurs are the owners of the <strong>Tridente Collection boutique hotel chain<\/strong>, who wanted to improve the area of Largo della Sapienza \u2013 also opening the Palazzo Navona hotel \u2013and to revitalize via del Melone.<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant spreads over two levels: the <strong>ground floor<\/strong>, with the tables and the bar area, has <strong>large windows with travertine frames<\/strong>, a typical detail of Roman fascist architecture, that can be opened during warm seasons, offering the possibility of having <strong>lunch or dinner in the open air<\/strong>. A precious <strong>marble staircase with brass details <\/strong>leads to the <strong>basement level<\/strong>, which hosts the restrooms, the kitchen and the <strong>wine cellar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The space and furnishings are <strong>teal, turquoise and red<\/strong>, vivid colors that are in perfectly harmony. The lines are bold and soft and <strong>the prevailing shape in this project is the circle<\/strong>. Sinuous and dynamic lines characterize the interiors: from the thin arched decorations to the <strong>three-dimensional diamond screens of the <\/strong>teal<strong> boiserie<\/strong>, to the curves of the supports of the diamond bottle rack hanging over the counter. <strong>Furniture is<\/strong> <strong>tailor-made<\/strong> and enriched by metal details such as cutlery tray drawers or menu holder compartments. Thin metal structures frame colorful transparent elements such as the discs hanging over the black marble tables.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>The use of <strong>stained glass<\/strong> is an architectural decoration that dates back to the <strong>early 20<sup>th <\/sup>century<\/strong>, here with a contemporary twist.
