African Queen Cala Di Volpe - Porto Cervo

Set on the beach of Hotel Cala di Volpe, in Porto Cervo, African Queen marks the brand's first Italian address, founded in 1969 in Beaulieu-sur-Mer.

Studio Quentin signs the interior design here, conceived in dialogue with the exceptional setting of the Costa Smeralda. The space is built around a natural, understated materiality, echoing the emblematic architecture of the site designed by Jacques Couëlle. Wood takes center stage, used in warm tones that structure both furniture and joinery. Stone and raw textures punctuate the space, bringing a quiet minerality in keeping with the Mediterranean surroundings. The bespoke furniture is designed to follow the rhythms of the place: beachside service, long shared tables, suspended moments between lunch and sunset.

This project reflects, once again, Studio Quentin's signature approach: material chosen with precision, in service of an understated luxury and a way of life rooted in the Mediterranean.
