A building of considerable importance in the urban landscape was formed with the creation of a link with the new hotel building that overlooks Via Marco Polo. The access to the restaurant - a low unit, typical of hotels – has been added to the façade of the Duca Hotel. This unit is partially covered with glass and supported by columns of white marble from Carrara. The façade ends with open-face bricks.
