In a world where faux-Scandinavian design is all the rage, and you can’t move for pastels, coming across Guardian Angel makes quite the impression. It’s about as far from any sort of minimalism as it is possible.

About San Marco

San Marco is probably the most well-known of Venice’s main districts, and the most popular among tourists. It’s packed with monuments – it has spectacular palaces and churches, and consistently beautiful Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The central square is, unsurprisingly, an important tourist hub.
