ICONE: A Celebration of Italian Design Excellence in Doha, Qatar

共享:

The vibrant city of Doha, Qatar is poised to embrace the fusion of Italian design and avant-garde innovation as the “ICONE. Voices of Design Made in Italy” exhibition opens its doors September 20th at the city’s epicenter for art and design, M7.

This highly anticipated exhibition is curated by renowned gallerist Rossana Orlandi and architect Lucio Micheletti in a spectacular tribute to the timeless artistry, technological prowess, and sustainability inherent to Italian craftsmanship.

Organized by the Embassy of Italy in Qatar under the guidance of Qatar Museums, ICONE highlights the long-standing synergy between Italy and Qatar.

Molteni&C is proud to present two iconic pieces at the ICONE exhibition, each representing a different era — the timeless D.154.2 by Gio Ponti and the contemporary Living Box by Vincent Van Duysen. In addition, Francesca Molteni will curate a video series showcasing the major players of ‘Made in Italy’ manufacturing, to be on view every day to complement the gallery presentations.

Open to the public until December 20th, ICONE is a singular opportunity to experience and celebrate the unrivaled excellence of Italian design.

单体家具

Vincent Van Duysen 设计了 Living Box。从典型的建筑项目入手,比如建筑物、演唱会舞台、会议室或纪念碑空间,Vincent Van Duysen 缩小了它的尺寸,将其转变成家用物品,赋予其独特特征和可能的新用途。

Designed by Vincent Van Duysen, the Living Box takes inspiration from theatrical settings, such as concert halls and amphitheaters. Van Duysen skillfully scaled down these grand designs to create a household object with a unique, open aesthetic and versatile possibilities for use.

扶手椅

D.154.2扶手椅由Gio Ponti匠心设计,凝聚了Ponti非凡的建筑才华与对设计的满腔热忱,采用包裹式曲线造型,优美悦目,质感舒适。此款扶手椅专为Gio Ponti尤为喜爱的建筑项目——加拉加斯Planchart收藏家夫妇的别墅(1953-1957年)而设计。

Originally designed for the Planchart collectors' villa in Caracas (1953-57), the D.154.2 embodies the architectural concepts Gio Ponti developed during his Latin American journeys in 1952-53. Today, this iconic armchair features a rigid polyurethane frame, a soft polyurethane counter-frame, and a cushion, all upholstered in Molteni&C's textile range. Notably, it received the Wallpaper Design Award in 2016, solidifying its status as a contemporary Molteni&C icon.
