‘ROOMS OF ROME’, LIVING THE ART IN THE HEART OF ROME

- Ilona Catani Scarlett

‘Rhinoceros’ is the experiment conceived in a historic palace by the Fondazione Alda Fendi – Esperiment­i that has been designed and furnished by the great French architect Jean Nouvel, and inaugurate­d in October. ‘Rhinoceros’ represents the synthesis of the Foundation’s philosophy that since 2001 has promoted artistic experiment­ation that goes beyond the convention­al boundaries between the discipline­s: exhibition­s, multimedia creations, action, artistic interferen­ce involving different experienti­al areas, visual and performing arts. A real “city of art”: a place to visit through the passageway­s of the art gallery, to live in its magnificen­t 24 apartments immersed in the heart of ancient Rome, there where Rome was born, and to be admired for the atmosphere of its dreamy terraces. A hub of attraction, a lighthouse illuminate­d day and night, where artistic research and creativity find their ideal home. The 24 apartments named ‘The Rooms in Rome’ are located within the ‘Rhinoceros’ together with the gallery restaurant and they offer the opportunit­y of a unique art and architectu­re experience through personaliz­ed stays in which wishes and ideas have no boundaries. These special and unique fully equipped apartments offer state of the art of technology and domotics while respecting the building’s history and background while offering a virtually infinite range of possibilit­ies when visiting the Eternal City. Prior to their check-in, guests will be able to choose from a pillow menu, from a wide variety of perfumes for their room. Plenty of additional experience­s are provided “á la carte” by commercial partners, and they include absolutely everything a person might need, from beauty treatments and massages to any type of lessons or training, from show cooking and entertainm­ent, to museum and city private tours, and even art creation.
