CREATIVITY, EXPERTISE: A STELLAR ENCOUNTER
ISA SPA is participating in the creation of the new DaV Cantalupa, the Cerea family’s bistro in Brusaporto.
The new DaV Cantalupa project, designed by the prestigious Joseph Di Pasquale architects studio in Milan, fully represents what ISA Spa is capable of achieving today.
The architectural design of DaV Cantalupa was interpreted by ISA’s technicians, involving all the company’s skilled workers. It was a significant experience, carried out in collaboration with Rossella Cerea, the driving force behind the project and general manager of Da Vittorio, under the supervision of Carlo Giulietti.
ISA is increasingly distinguishing itself in the HoReCa world thanks to its ability to create tailor-made projects, and DaV Cantalupa represents one of its finest expressions: a challenging project of great impact and prestige.
Particularly noteworthy are the American Bar and the Show Grill, which testify to ISA’s craftsmanship and savoir faire. The imposing curved counter stands out, with a forged top made entirely of Blue Fire natural marble, with a walnut wood front, enriched with precious details in the finishes and lighting system. The tables for guests were also made entirely by ISA: carefully turned, with a burnished brass finish and Rêve Blue porcelain stoneware tops, some designed as modular elements that can be easily joined or separated for maximum flexibility and adaptability to the spaces at DaV Cantalupa.
Another important feature is the spectacular wine cellar, which occupies a considerable area within the space. Completely transparent, it was custom-made with an aluminium structure and double glazing to ensure the perfect preservation of the most prized labels. The internal shelving, complete with backlit plexiglass shelves, is designed to optimally accommodate each bottle.
The architectural design is also based on the desire to maintain a constant dialogue with the surrounding landscape, thanks to large opening glass walls that strengthen the link between inside and outside, increasing the feeling of immersion in nature.
The large open space of the restaurant is embellished by a spectacular ‘living’ organic wall, formed by golden ribbons carved into oak. An element that, as architect Joseph Di Pasquale states, ‘generates a strong relationship between memory of the past, emotion of the present and imagination of the future‘.
DaV Cantalupa offers a truly innovative food experience, where the architectural vision blends with ISA’s exquisite customisation, embodying the style and tradition of the Cerea family. As Michelin-starred chef Enrico Cerea, known as Chicco, says: “For us, food is a form of love, a way of making others feel good, and ourselves too.”
All that remains is to let yourself be captivated by this magnificent space: at DaV Cantalupa in Brusaporto, you can enjoy food with your palate, but also with your eyes.
