Curated by the Michelangelo Foundation, the event shines a spotlight on the talent and vision of leading artisans and designers. More than just an exhibition, it serves as a vital platform for celebrating craftsmanship and applied arts—offering a unique opportunity to experience the richness of contemporary making and creative expression.
Room of love
The armchair Shibari, designed by Studiopepe for Visionnaire, was selected by Homo Faber’s artistic directors, Luca Guadagnino and Nicolò Rosmarini, to be showcased in the “Room of Love” at the Giorgio Cini Foundation. This space is devoted to celebrating love as a powerful emotion.
Inspired by the shape of a knot, the armchair stands as an ancient symbol—evoking unity and unbreakable bonds. Its inclusion perfectly embodies Visionnaire’s philosophy, which blends refined aesthetics with sustainability, thanks to a design-for-disassembly approach and the use of the eco-conscious ‘Paddington’ fabric.

Visionnaire has always regarded art and craftsmanship as the highest expressions of human talent—core elements that define the very DNA of our brand.

Sala del Soffitto at Fondazione Giorgio Cini
Visionnaire also returns to curate the VIP lounge in the Sala del Soffitto at the Giorgio Cini Foundation, showcasing a refined selection of its creations. At the heart of the space is the modular sofa Donovan Square by Luigi Cavalli - which embodies the brand’s signature blend of elegance, comfort, and contemporary design - and the low table and console Lego by Draga & Aurel, characterized by an embrace of geometric forms that seamlessly come together in perfect harmony.
