Nyx by Alberto Caiola Studio: 2019 Best of Year Winner for Bar/Lounge

Although named after Nyx, the Greek goddess of the night, this futuristic rooftop bar takes its inspiration from Roman ruins. A native of Pordenone, Italy, design director Alberto Caiola drew on his visits to the Columns of San Lorenzo in Milan as a student. Tourist attraction by day, the colonne are a relaxed hangout by night.
