The cover, photographed by Giancarlo Bononi, perfectly represents our way of interpreting the world of food: a balance between technique and creativity, material and light, tradition and innovation. Inside the issue, the editorial team has dedicated an article to our journey, exploring our new projects and the creative direction we are building. We sincerely thank the editorial team for this important recognition and for telling our story with such sensitivity and professionalism.
