This year is a singular New Year's Eve. A well-known entrepreneur and a few select friends.
They wanted the villa all for themselves. For cooking and celebrating. Given the confidentiality and intimacy of the matter, we wanted to photograph only the most unfortunate of them. Two huge lobsters ended up on our stove.
Yet another occasion in which the villa is also suitable for small groups (amici, colleagues, companions, team aziendali, employees or crew for filming) who shy away from restaurants, farmhouses, crowded hotels or public places but they want an intimate place and theirs where to be in peace. In front of the fireplace crackling in winter or at the side of the Japanese pond in estate.
In this case they enjoyed cooking but for the less accustomed we have all kinds of banqueting.
Greetings Happy New Year from our two kind dwarves’ (they are in fact a couple, also close-knit judging by the images) who wanted to play with some furnishings and furnishings scattered throughout the villa. The same ones who appear here and there and cheer up yours events with a mood that is sometimes refined and sometimes jaunty.
Playing is the right verb because an event, even if it were business, it must always have a leisure component, playful or, at least, convivial and gastronomic. If you then play with the design it's the best!
Tell local businesses, through a monologue, the stories of large entrepreneurial projects such as Google, Amazon, Netflix, Facebook, Whatsapp, Linkedin, Airbnb , Tesla, Toyota, Olivetti, Ferrero, Spotify and more. Secrets, anecdotes and ideas for growth.In a villa wanted by an entrepreneur for entrepreneurs.
In developing ever greater synergies for the territory and its corporate entities, hosting event opportunities business in its particular setting of modern architecture surrounded by greenery, Villa Bornello has partnered with Companies Talks.
Companies Talks is a storytelling project created to tell companies the stories of large entrepreneurial projects such as Google, Amazon, Netflix, Facebook, Whatsapp, Linkedin, Airbnb , Tesla, Toyota, Olivetti, Ferrero, Spotify and others still.
The idea is to involve people in reconstructing the facts, of the choices and conditions that have led these projects to become reference players and world-famous brands.
The aim is to draw insights from these narratives, idea and messages useful for achieving the company's business objectives.
Change the context. No longer the classroom, the blackboard, the projector and the lecturer. All replaced from a stage in a Villa that once belonged to a entrepreneur.
The Talks are monologues performed by professional actors, written to make the most of the potential of storytelling and followed by a so-called "debriefing" phase during which discussion is stimulated on the topics that have most sparked reflection and critical thinking useful for companies
A new and alternative way of training based on historical facts, epic choices and little-known anecdotes told to capture attention.
Villa Bornello, already the venue for the club deal's Treviso meeting Angels for Impact, and the Companies Talks contact person for the Province of Treviso and will be happy to give all information necessary for anyone who would like to organize an engaging and convivial Talk with us for their company on a subject taken from the large series of Companies Talks stories.
Active with an offer of networking events aimed at companies, Villa Bornello, it is the place wanted by an entrepreneur for entrepreneurs and this latest collaboration reinforces this mission. Far from the concept of crowded restaurants, farmhouses or conference centers the Villa makes of modern design and architecture an informal and exclusive mood, besieged by greenery, for corporate team building, cooking Team building, alternative training, motivation, corporate dinners, Day team for managers and how it can be useful for local companies to organize events on business topics and training in a way light and convivial.
Annalisa celebrates with her friends. Who made the classic video without his knowledge. From his first cries to the present day. The villa as usual welcomes them with its own design mood and lights. In addition to the first fireplace of the season. A minimum amount of preparation is needed and here gerberas appear, splashbacks and spandrels.
Franco was thinking of taking a plane. Instead his better half set a trap for him that ended here in Villa. Blindfolded and thinking of spending a weekend with his girlfriend, he instead found himself between 40 friends led by his three musician brothers. All between the villa and parcO, marked by the catering which churned out delicacies in profusion washed down with excellent wine and concluded with the ritual dessert.
They are like the Valda Pads, like fiat 500, like the Bialetti coffee maker, like the Panini stickers. They produced hundreds of thousands of them. They are the plaques of Biticino, the famous 'Magic' series plates’ very widespread over the years 60 e 70, and also produced later.
A recent visit to Mil Science Museumagain , in particular in the area in which the Italian post-war industrial and consumer development was discussed, with examples such as Olivetti,Sip, brionvega, Seleco, it allowed us to see them posing inside their showcases.
Nothing rare, Therefore, however it is nice to think that a clean and linear object that has been part of the Italian costume, del design e del Made in Italy, also peep into the villa. Under, some specimens.
Some museum dudes, In short, like ours floor tiles.
In the company of Donna Summer, Boney. M and Saturday night fever, obligatory bell-bottom dress code, wig and glasses. But all the various seventies styles were well interpreted. With a food truck in the park and a looping video full of photographs to tell the life of the birthday girl created based on the unforgettable theme song of 'Beware of those two’ con Tony Curtis e Roger Moore. (For the gorgeous nostalgic fifty year olds see below :-))
Between appetizers, chatting and dancing, the evening went off without a hitch under the watchful eye of Tony Manero.
Maria travels the world visiting wine production areas. He wanted to celebrate who with their friends scattered across the Triveneto area. Furthermore, the party was deliberately vegan. Among the veggie cups with nettle mousse and those with curry chickpeas and cherry tomatoes, among the legume salad, toasted cashews and datterini tomatoes to then arrive at the large trays of sushi and finally the fruit pyramids.
All washed down with Maria's wines, originating from France, Austria, Lombardy and so on. Between the villa and the park dancing the seventies, gli eighties ed i nineties.
Hen party. Here is the future bride, unaware of everything, try your hand at cupcakes. Fun cooking lesson with a professional cook. Top quality ingredients, lots of fun and the irreplaceable Bimbi. All in nature. Refreshments and ritual photos follow parcO
Emotional awakening rears its ugly head again villa. The day after the first 'setting' meeting, some weeks ago, what we are describing is a very focused day. Kissed by a dewy dawn and accompanied by suitable music, from the dance, from the quartz bells and above all from lots and lots of nature very close to the city. Here's the story (video) photography that reaches one of the most intense moments who
This cute object by Gio Ponti for Casa Fornaroli in Milan is cute, approximately of 1955. Our eye fell because we too…
This wardrobe by Gio Ponti recently went up for auction for the Phillips guys. Gio Ponti designed some things for the house of his friend and colleague Fornaroli, including this particular wardrobe with pass-through door. Below is the first roundup with some photos taken from auction notice. Below are the images of one of our boiseries with similar functions designed by Roberto Pamio for the villa. In fact, it hides environments and passages. And we also have the original drawings 🙂
Our particular hallway features a custom-made wardrobe. As well as containing clothes and things, leads to two environments. We also have one of this project model original of the time made by the architect on cardboard (and Carioca pastels, judging by ‘ treatment’ :-)) to better understand the development of the project and the colors.
Note the colored 'Arco coat hangers in the third image’ designed by Luigi Caramella for 'Con&With’ e, last but not least, positioned for both adults and, down, for children…
Little Jacopo's birthday and class party at a well-known city school. All designed by Valentina della @laboutiquedelpescejesolo and by the irrepressible Elisa di @tres_jolie_eventi which he branded’ the day of the birthday boy. Inflatables, magicians and lots of appetizers to accompany adults and children free to run around in the park among flowers, very elegant magnolias, fish and dragonflies.
A unique day, played in the various spaces of the villa which also protected well from a brief storm. Before and after the park hosted the acrobatics of around thirty children and the chatter over finger foods & their parents' wines.
A day of meditation in the villa, surround yourself from nature. Protected by the greenery of the park, visiting maples, oaks, ginkgo, limes, viburni, tulip trees and magnolias, caressed by the spring wind that barely dampens the heat of a finally dry spring, the participants alternated moments of meditation with refreshing breaks based on fruit and herbal teas. All in this natural arena away from the noise of the outside world but close to the city. A few detours to the Japanese lake and then ending up embraced by the large Himalayan cedars to the sound of quartz bells. A nice experience for the villa, thanks to Chiara and al his project, thanks to Diana ed a ZeroScuse Lab . Click on the photos to enlarge the gallery.
Next meeting on 18 June morning. For info click here

Joyful and loving brand it's a new people & lifestyle magazine distributed in the Province of Treviso. With its own breezy mood it tells of an innovative North East but with an eye on history, business and beyond. They stumbled upon ours villa and it was immediately elective affinity.
Signed by Prando Prandi, famous for having often written about Venetian entrepreneurship not only as a journalist but also as a writer, already in force as marketing director at groups such as Stefanel, Mionetto, Aperol, Deroma and known signature of the Gazzetta dello Sport , Gazzettino and others for years, the piece allows for the first time to retrace the history of the villa from both an architectural and a sociological point of view, going these two things more and more merging in recent times. Why such a villa in Treviso in those years and what are the real reasons for its construction? What is the reason for this particular relationship with her naturethat surrounds it? Because this kind of architecture and what are the social functions of the villa in addition to residence? The symbolism of water aligned with fire, the play of light given by the rise of the sun from dawn to zenith, its representative function, the dinners of the past and the today's events.
But most of all: because we have goldfish almost in the living room?
A modern villa daughter of its era, where it is pleasant to come across design and details that have stubbornly survived fashions and built with spaces for conviviality. Conviviality once of the owners and now of the customers who organize it corporate events, ceremonies, shootings and not only.
The villa she is self-confident and therefore organizes lively events. The 6 May we will have a wonderful evening betweenaperitif visit to the villa and fun board games with friends of Meter it's from ‘ The City of the Sunof Treviso.

Guests say they resemble Portuguese azulejo tiles. To some they remind Provence or Sicily. But the truth is another. A tour of the Museum of Santa Caterina (Treviso) it gave us a curiosity and in looking for the fathers of these coverings we ended up at Ceramics Museum of Faenza where we found our own tiles. But let's go in order.
Giretto al St Catherine's Museum of Treviso where, between culture and popular traditions, we find a stand dedicated to The Painted City of Treviso, from the homonymous in-depth study of the decorations in Treviso over the period from the 13th to the 21st century. The accompanying text reads : ” The same taste manifests itself in the exteriors of the Treviso buildings, he also expressed himself in the interiors with the application of colors and decorations on every wall or wooden surface available, from floor to ceiling”.
At the museum and in the kitchen
Even though we don't have frescoed surfaces, we enjoyed seeing the graphic similarities between the ancient Treviso wall decorations and the hand-painted tiles in our kitchen (produces. Seagulls).
Then a doubt: being that Gabbianelli (who his own story) it is a historical and particular brand, we got to the bottom of it by discovering that our tiles are present at the Ceramics Museum of Faenza and exactly who. Seagulls he collaborated with Giò Ponti, Enzo Mari, Italo Lupi e, udite udite, also with the young designers and planners of the villa Roberto Pamio and Renato Toso.
Let's start with the Treviso museum. Here are the pictures of the decorations.
The kitchen of the Villa. Details.
The big kitchen, flanked by a very useful kitchen sbratta where we find worktops and appliances, it is studded with jumbled tiles. Where a single tile repeated several times would have donated an order given by composure and repetitiveness, here some lucid madness – which also peeks out elsewhere in the villa – he gave the order to place them at random, creating an unsettling game and colors that are still current.
Gabbianelli catalogues. Circa early 70's
Thanks to Museum of Ceramics of Faenza, to the kind director Claudia Casali and the librarian Marcela Kubovova we went back to the series ‘ Hand decorated‘ by Gabbianelli that covers our kitchen. The series remained in production for about a decade. In the 'sbratta kitchen’ instead we have the series ‘cabochon‘ designed by Renato Toso in 1973 (Studio Pamio-Toso) also decorated by hand and in which opposite angles of the same color on square tiles led to combinations (quasi) infinite. In the following images the original catalogues Seagulls. (click on the images to enlarge)
What to say? A beautiful adventure 'coated’ (it is appropriate to say) of pleasant surprises. Historical courses and appeals.

He has 70 years. But he doesn't prove them. She gave him a surprise. He made him find a sea of candles. But it wasn't the only ingredient.
A sax that duets with the guests to the sound of great rock pieces zigzagging between candles is certainly a great sight. For the other half Silvia has organized everything to perfection. Welcome corner & bar, then hams in the cradle, tartare & prawns in sauce, octopus, salmon, sautéed macaroni, hamburgherino al cheddar, torta, backsplashes of pancakes and crostoli, dancing and then hotdogs and frittolin late at night. The almost forty guests were free to use the different floors of the villa, in addition to external. The possibility of wandering around a location exclusive. The inevitable fireplace in front of which to dance for years 70-90 and not only.
Yesterday Day Team with an important on-demand printing multinational in the area to which each graphics agency, bodybuilder, advertising, architect or communicator have trusted at least once in a lifetime 😉. They didn't want to appear but it's understandable.
Our formatinnkeeper effect' accompanied them throughout the day, from early morning zen cake to lunch, then dinner and spirits with cigars, after dinner chocolate and rum. A full day of full immersion for the small team of executives intent on discussing future strategies in peace away from the distractions of the office. The beetroot risotto creamed with Morlacco del Grappa was elected 'Villa Bornello dish' for its obvious chromatic affinities. We have before and after photos of the fillet Wellington. The gigantic Aglione of the Val di Chiana, added to the 'bigoli in salsa' instead of the onion, it was a welcome surprise. The Barbera label 'by mistake' that accompanied part of the libations is from a niche Piedmontese producer. Thanks to the chefs and their team for leading the day by illustrating the history and particularities of the dishes, of the ingredients, of the wines. This is also part of the particular type of corporate events who we love to host here at villa is that, fireplace front, make the day exciting, intimate and productive.
