FABBIAN S . R . L .

Naples and the Art of Elegance

IN THE RENOVATED HOTEL THE BRITANNIQUE , FABBIAN ’ S LIGHTING IS A KEY ELEMENT OF THE PROJECT , WITH CATALOGUE PRODUCTS AND CUSTOM DESIGNS .
Gnosis Progetti chooses Fabbian for its transversal and complete offer , drawing from the Decorative Tech and Custom catalogue .
Light and its functional , technical and aesthetic values are Fabbian ’ s field of action for the recent renovation of The Britannique hotel , by Gnosis Progetti soc . coop .
We are in Naples , where the gulf and Vesuvius can be admired from the slopes of the Chiaia hill , just like in the most memorable postcards : through the large windows of the façade that follow each floor up to the top of the building , where the glass and steel structure , which houses the bar and gourmet restaurant , flows lightly and with visual continuity into the panoramic rooftop garden .
A flood of light ; as much natural light as that cast into the architecture by the designers , who have drawn
both on what Fabbian makes , in terms of standard , decorative and tech catalogue products , and what Fabbian can make upon request , developing technologically advanced custom solutions that meet creative flair combined with specific needs .
Our mission : to transfer the most fascinating and evocative aspects of the city of Naples into a longabandoned container , accepting the challenge of moving from the urban scale of the work to that of detail , right up to the decorative fittings of the interiors ”, states Rossella Traversari of the Gnosis team .
This is the inspiration for the project , which is enhanced by Fabbian lighting fixtures : the late nineteenth-century buildings in the historic centre of Naples , with their vitality and warmth , are recalled by the colour choices for the common areas of rich , vibrant colours .
