In the untrammeled region of Le Marche, Interno Marche is an homage to Italian design. Franco Moschini, former president of Italian furniture company Poltrona Frau, transformed the Art Nouveau-style Villa Gabrielli into a hotel with 30 guest rooms. He hired Cristiana Antonini and Claudio Tombolini of Tolentino-based Ora Studio, who filled interiors with custom pieces by the greatest minds in 20th- and 21st-century Italian design. Expect works from Michele De Lucchi, Marc Newson, Studio Nendo, and legends like Gae Aulenti and Vico Magistretti. Highlights include a Poltrona Frau Vanity Fair armchair, and Gio Ponti’s gravity-defying Superleggera chair—so light it famously bounced when tossed from a fourth-floor window.
