In the hills not far from Parma, Italy, lies a natural spa that is a masterpiece of architecture. It was designed to connect man with the healing properties of nature and to serve as a reminder of her abundant beauty. Depictions of blooming flora and fauna interspersed with Greek goddesses adorn the interior walls in a harmonious fusion of Art Nouveau, Art Deco and Far Eastern influences. Vibrantly-coloured stained glass windows filter the sunlight and intricate floral motifs add an extra dimension of tranquility to the already relaxing environment.
