Relais Bellaria Hotel & Congressi

Emerging quality in harmonious spaces.

Relais Bellaria in Bologna was one of the clients we met at the Rimini fair. The manager, Mr. Angelo, was looking for seating to renovate the lobby, which had worn red faux leather sofas.

After presenting our offer, Angelo informed me that he had received a better offer from another company for what appeared to be one of our models. I immediately realized that this was a former dealer of ours, and I explained to Angelo the difference in manufacturing quality and the materials used for that type of product.

Our production guarantees a high quality standard that can be compared with imported or non-artisanally manufactured products.

Mr. Angelo gave us the opportunity to corroborate my claims about the difference in quality in person. This required multiple appointments just to analyze fabrics and combinations and test samples of the models they had in mind. After a careful evaluation, they opted for Santa Monica armchairs, alternating with Cardiff armchairs and sofas, customized with a wider than standard width.

Great satisfaction and a welcoming space for guests.

For the upholstery, we chose a brown faux nubuck with an antiqued effect for the seat and a fabric with a small geometric design in ochre, gray, and brown tones for the backrest. The front of the backrests was made of ochre velvet, matching the color of the backrest. The chair and sofa legs were stained a dark, almost black walnut.

We added two round tables, one 60 cm in diameter and the other 80 cm, the smaller one taller and the larger one shorter, matching the dark walnut color of the chair legs. The whole thing was enhanced with cushions made from the same geometric fabric as the backrest.

In the end, the result was extraordinary. The lobby of the Relais Bellaria was transformed into a welcoming and sophisticated space, where every detail, from the fabrics to the colors, was carefully selected. Angelo and Mr. Mazza were extremely satisfied with our work. This project is particularly close to my heart, as it allowed me to concretely demonstrate the importance of quality materials and service. We often talk about "quality" and "durability" without being able to demonstrate them, but this time we had the opportunity to give real value to these words.
