Framed by a private natural oasis within the Augustus Hotel & Resort, Villa Radici reopens as a five-star retreat with timeless charm. The interior design project, signed by studio De.Tales, brings new life to the 1940s residence, preserving its original spirit, while reinterpreting it with contemporary sensibility.

Spread across two floors, this historic residence houses seven suites and a series of communal spaces conceived as tailored environments – each detail, from custom finishes to one-of-a-kind furnishings, tells a story of elegance and stylistic harmony.

The natural surroundings are echoed in the palette and materials, while vintage design pieces and 20th-century artworks enrich the spaces with authenticity and flair.

A convivial dining table sits beneath a vintage Barovier & Toso chandelier; nearby, Gae Aulenti’s Quadrifoglio floor lamp and Gio Ponti’s iconic Leggera chair add character and history to the interiors. Each piece contributes to a curated dialogue between craftsmanship, design, and memory.
