Changing colours at Villa Cora, Florence

A cheeky nod at modernity reflects the stylish elegance of Villa Cora. The Ceramics Room, once the dining room of the Baron Oppenheim, is now the location of the Hotel Bar, dominated by a long glass table with LED lighting that offers striking play of light (in varying shades) on the original sideboards of the mid-1800s where the best whiskey labels are kept.
