Named In-store Philosophy 3, this new phase creates a dialogue between the brand’s icons through warm living environments, where classic materials have been reinterpreted to communicate a contemporary form of expression. For example, living areas are divided by perforated 3D metal sheets and graphic anodized alumnium screens with vertical louvres which, thanks to their particular workmanship, offer different perspectives depending on one’s position and lighting.
Products on show at the stand include the key sofas Beam Sofa System by Patricia Urquiola and Volage EX-S by Philippe Starck, two new colour combinations for the Gender armchair by Patricia Urquiola, the Ico chair in a new taupe stained ash-wood version by Ora-Ito and the ZH One armchair by Zaha Hadid, as well as a range of new editions that pay homage to Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand’s journeys.
