A project that sensitively reinterprets the Capri landscape, transforming it into a palette of colours and materials, and guiding the experience of the spaces through the use of shades that enhance their natural harmony.

Nestled on the panoramic slopes of Monte Solaro, one of Italy's most iconic landscapes, the Jumeirah Capri Palace invites guests to experience the authentic essence of Anacapri through an immersive journey of Mediterranean environments, atmospheres and rituals.

The project is set in a historic building, reinterpreting its relationship with the territory through a tailored landscape: textured materials, botanical layers, and measured geometries amplify the panorama and restore the sense of being enveloped by unspoilt nature. The colours of the place blend with organic shapes and local materials, while the handcrafted ceramics extend the elegance of the interiors to the exterior, creating continuity between the spaces.

A refined palette, drawing on the shades of the surroundings, defines environments characterised by specific chromatic identities: warm terracottas, soft whites, deep blues and Palladian flooring compose a contemporary lexicon of Mediterranean elegance. The outdoor areas thus take on different atmospheres, from cerulean blues evoking olive trees to the intense tones of citrus fruits, creating changing scenes and providing green backdrops for the works of art distributed throughout the complex.

Dry stone walls, terraces, and old vineyards, converted over time into places of hospitality and wellbeing, symbolise a project that transforms the landscape without betraying its memory, offering an intimate, sophisticated experience deeply connected to the nature of Capri.
