Space created by Swiss architect Valentin Bearth. The architectural concept was born from a
desire to create a synergy with the city through an exhibition/cafe space where artworks are
displayed on white walls in a sort of transparent space and where the backlit panels and wide
glazed surfaces - the windows looking onto Piazza Cavour and the Porta Venezia gardens
- enable people walking by in the street to enjoy a view of Switzerland and people in the
restaurant to get an unobstructed view of the city. The collection of laleggera chairs and ilvolo
tables designed by Riccardo Blumer for Alias has been selected to furnish the Swiss Corner.
The collection is proposed in the elegant version whitened oak.
