A gelateria carved out of a former prison (Le Murate) in Florence. The brief was to repurpose a historically charged space into somewhere warm and alive. Exposed brick was kept exactly as found, layered with curved green marble counters, warm timber beams, brass fittings, and black and white tiles. The result is a space that feels like it has always been there.
