Designer portraits

A truly unprecedented Franco Zeffirelli has masterfully filled the role of “designer” for Neri. An artistic touch that perfectly blends historical-architectural sensibility with urban requirements, to restore refinement and prestige to one of the city’s symbolic places: the magnificent Piazza Bra.
The goal was the redevelopment of 1000 m2 covering the famous “Liston” marble pavement, which is home to the “dehors”, the outdoor seating areas of the establishments that are now an integral part of the piazza’s identity.
The project is characterised by cast iron columns, decorated beams and the colours of the awnings to match the building façades. A project that gives full expression to Neri’s distinctive ability and its special attention to the creation of technological and design solutions in harmony with their historical and architectural settings.
