Villa Bianca

Perched on the central promontory of Porto Cervo, Villa Bianca overlooks the Marina and surrounding hills. The project involved a complete transformation of an existing property, redesigned to meet the needs of contemporary living and the standards of the high-end real estate market. The custom-designed, handcrafted furniture uses natural materials and neutral tones to create an interior that aligns with the architecture. The approach maintains a consistent connection between the living spaces and the building’s design. The interior design feature authentic materials and artisanal finishes: natural lime walls, local stone floors and Sardinian ceramics. A notable detail is the traditional “rami delle regine” technique on ceilings and corridor walls, using dried chestnut branches hand-assembled and plastered.

MOOR was created as a place capable of engaging guests in a complete, immersive, and shared experience: the project interprets dining as a moment of socializing, entertainment, and aesthetic discovery, a place where light, materials, and volumes interact with visitors and tell a coherent story of hospitality and style.

Housed in a former industrial warehouse, the restaurant features a five-meter-high interior. Its dramatic façade stretches over 100 meters across three fronts, featuring bold portals, gleaming metal, and large windows that hint at an interior defined by light and transparency.

The dining area spans about 800 mq, seating up to 300 guests in spaces that balance intimacy and sociability. Flared volumes, semi-private rooms, and scenic islands create cozy settings without breaking visual flow. The predominantly neutral and dark palette, punctuated by bold accents, creates an atmosphere both captivating and inviting. Bespoke fittings and furnishings engage in a subtle dialogue that enhances the space.
