Boats fill the waters. Fireworks coat the skies. Across the city, Venice’s locals flood their rooftops to see the display. This year, editor and entrepreneur Whitney Robinson was one amongst the crowds celebrating Festa del Redentore, the city's annual spectacle, as a special guest of Armani/Casa. The two-day experience included stops at nearby places of import—Palazzo Falier and Ducale—as well as studio visits and exquisite dinners. The design writer offered CULTURED an exclusive look inside the festive whirlwind.
