HOTEL NH VITTORIO VENETO

HOTEL NH VITTORIO VENETO
1968/71 Amedeo Luccichenti (1907/63), Vincenzo Monaco (1911/69) and Edoardo Monaco, Vincenzo's son
"In the feverish atmosphere of reconstruction after World War II, Luccichenti and Monaco were among the professionals who were able to conduct a personal research, realizing the value of buildings and defining the true role models for the building type. Their architectures are generally characterized by façades designed by long horizontal ribbon windows with grids marked by structural regularity of form, with particular attention paid to internal distribution" (Gianluca Ficorilli - Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani Treccani)
