La Grande Bellezza
Patron with Italy at heart
"With the La Grande Bellezza project, we set ourselves the ambitious goal of giving a voice, space and concrete opportunities to the workshops and enterprises of Italian craftsmanship. A treasure trove of beauty and know-how that has made us who we are and is the object of love and desire around the world."
Thanks to the partnership with OMA - Associazione Osservatorio dei Mestieri d’Arte, Fondazione Cologni dei Mestieri d’Arte and Gruppo Editoriale, Starhotels conceived and promoted this initiative to celebrate the rich Italian heritage of talent and savoir-faire.
The project involves a series of worthwhile actions to support the sector: the creation of Starhotels-branded product lines of the highest craftsmanship, under the guidance of renowned designers; the institution of the biennial Starhotels Award dedicated to craftspeople, for creating works based on contests related to hospitality; the involvement of outstanding masters of the arts in the renovation of hotels, exhibitions, meetings and events promoted in Starhotels and in art and cultural spaces; and support for training young master craftspeople.
As part of the project “La Grande Bellezza,” Starhotels confers a bi-annual award whose primary aim is to valorize the repertoire of Italian crafts and artisan masters.
