Cassaro Cafè-Bistrot

Location: Noto, Siracusa, Italy, Architects: Morana+Rao Architetti, Photographs: Francesco Caristia

In Corso Vittorio Emanuele, the heart of Noto, there are the most prestigious buildings and churches of the 18th century, including the former Convent of Jesuits. This imposing edifice, that is just over 100 m long, was designed by Rosario Gagliardi, undisputed protagonist of the reconstruction of Noto and many other cities located in Val di Noto. This project concerns the interior of one of many commercial low parts that make up the large building’s ground floor. The design strategy aims at settling a complex programme of catering activities by enhancing the existing architectural space qualities and characteristics.
