The project originated from Franco Moschini’s desire to bring back to light Villa Gabrielli, a building protected by the Architectural Heritage Superintendence and a symbol of Tolentino’s economic, social, cultural development. The work involved many interventions for the recovery and conservative restoration of the building. The project resulted in the creation of a contemporary design hotel with a strong and unique identity: each room is inspired by a master architect who has collaborated with Franco Moschini or one of the companies he owned, with common areas unifying the spatial and emotional narrative. Designers such as Michele De Lucchi, Marc Newson, Gae Aulenti, Vico Magistretti, Giò Ponti, and Achille Castiglioni are represented through settings, lines, prints, and iconic pieces.

Interno Marche Design Hotel is located in the centre of Tolentino, its renovation has led to the redevelopment of the street, creating a new attraction.

The project revisits and modernizes some materials used in the original construction era of Villa Gabrielli(1920s) such as graniglia (concrete paving), metal frames and structures and brick. The project focused on using low-emission materials (e.g. cork insulating plasters) with certified EPD and LCA life cycles and installing systems to ensure proper air recycling and quality, providing high levels of comfort.

Each room tells the story of the interpreters of design through rigorous philological research. The structure is proposed as a house-museum where visitors can travel through styles and furnishings that have shaped interior design history. The project involved recovery and conservative restoration work, according to the indications of the Architectural Heritage Superintendence. The external garden was redeveloped, preserving the original Liberty style. The depandance was demolished and rebuilt, because it was damaged during earthquake; the principal building was restored, preserving the historical parts, such as the frescoes in the rooms. In addiction to the iconic furnishing, custom furniture was designed and produced for the common areas and individual rooms. The historical soul of the building has been combined with a deeply contemporary interior design intervention. A "sustainable reconstruction" model has been adopted, making Interno Marche the first hotel in the world to benefit from the double sustainability certification GBC Historic Building and LEED V4 for hospitality. Is possible to carry out a contemporary architectural intervention in a historical building, combining aesthetic and poetic aspects with technical ones.
President Moschini's motto is: “Bello, buono, ben fatto”- “beautiful, good and well done”.
