Our newest hospitality project, Scala Apartment hails the ten-year anniversary of Valletta Vintage with five newly refurbished apartments, each diverse from the other and playfully designed with vintage and mid-century pieces related to a theme for each space.
The restored, central staircase inspired the musical nicknames – DO RE MI FA SOL – each note inhabiting a floor along its whitewashed, limestone blockwork; slowly climbing up into the dazzling Mediterranean light.
Facing the entrance to Valletta’s harbour, the rooftop level enjoys a dreamlike landscape, sheltered by green pergolas.
To convert an existing C18th dilapidated house into 5 new apartments – each with a different concept – for Valletta Vintage.
