Studio Marco Piva has also designed the facade in cooperation with a local designer, choosing jointly with the latter, a local, traditional coating material, the so-called Mazzaro, a very resistant type of tuff, combined with metal sheets or glass panels.

In the interior design project, the large and fluid spaces are characterized by an unusual approach to perspective, iconic elements, and a spectacular use of light.

Located in a strategic position, just a few meters from the Sassi – the pulsating heart of the city awarded as 2019 European Capital of Culture – the Hotel La Suite of Matera has been designed by Studio Marco Piva by drawing on the place’s historical and urban context and contemporary stylistic trends. Traditional structures, volumes and materials are interpreted through sophisticated workmanship and elegant details, creating a timeless, refined style.
