In the Venetian architectural tradition, the top floor of a Palazzetto was the part reserved for the rooms of the people close to the family and their own families. To remain faithful to the original function, the top floor apartment has a more modern and sober style, with wooden beams.
The second floor was traditionally dedicated to the family and daily life and included the library, music room and bedrooms. There are elegant silk covers on the walls, four-poster beds and refined furnishings.
The first floor of a Palazzetto was dedicated to welcoming noble guests and to great social occasions, such as dances and parties. Remaining in line with this tradition, the first floor has kept the refined silks on the walls, the four-poster beds and the decorations, strictly original to make your journey in the past more truthful.
In Baroque Venice, the ground floor was usually reserved for the Gondoliere di Casata – the family’s driver – who resided in an apartment dedicated to him. The other rooms on the ground floor were instead used as storage rooms to store valuables and precious goods for family use.
