Born in the USA

tasked by President Obama to completely decorate the White House

The prestigious Cappuccino group which has its name above some of the most elegant cafes in Palma and the rest of Mallorca has a reputation for classically elegant style, perfect mood music, and of course great coffee.

They have a new project near to completion, the Cappuccino Grand Cafe in Palma's central Paseo del Born, which will be opening in late March. In keeping with their ethos for style, they've brought in American decorator Michael Smith to do the interior design of the Cafe.

This is a real coup for the group as Smith has also been tasked by President Obama to completely decorate the White House! His CV also includes work on the houses of the famous such as Cindy Crawford, Dustin Hoffman, George Clooney and the other 'Boss' Bruce Springsteen.

He says that he'll be using some impressive friezes on the walls of the Grand Cafe, representing flower gardens, in an attempt to recreate the atmosphere of the great classical cafes of Palma.
