It’s like few other restaurants you’ve ever seen, Carlo e Camilla in Segheria is housed in a 1930s sawmill reimagined by art director Tanja Solci. The result is a pursuit of visual contraries from its decaying plaster walls and infinite concrete columns and floors to the pristine taxidermy and crystal chandeliers that bring gravity to the spare, vacuous space. Minimalist décor of clean, cloth-less communal tables and contemporary Cappellini chairs juxtaposes the vintage porcelain and ornate tablewares that the perfect backdrop for Michelin-starred chef Carlo Cracco.
