La Dolce Vita – a Celebration of Italianness

-

Architect Luigi Caccia Dominioni, in the context of Italy being a worldwide trendsetter and leader in design, had once stated: "We have more imagination, more culture, and are better mediators between the past and the future."

Since 2011, Milan Design Week (Salone del Mobile and Fuorisalone) has been a core part of how we have taken the unique quality of modern and contemporary Italian design and culture to the Indian design community. We marked this connection with an exclusively curated and intimate evening at the heritage ballroom of The Bangalore Club, on the 15th of November 2022.



The theme was La Dolce Vita. Italian for 'the sweet life', a sentiment intrinsic to Italian culture. That of living life to its fullest. And so, we explored Italianness through key personas and ideas in Art, Design, Music and Pop Culture – with an ambience, dialogue, live music, wine and a touch of cuisine to celebrate them all.



La Dolce Vita in ART, for it is first born in the pleasure of what we see. 



La Dolce Vita in DESIGN, of how the good life is experienced in good design - of objects and of spaces.



La Dolce Vita in MUSIC, for the sweet life is in what we hear - in harmony, in music.



La Dolce Vita in POP CULTURE, an idea in timeless entertainment, leaving a mark on global popular culture.

  Colours transcend mere visual aesthetics; they have the remarkable ability to evoke emotions, shape moods, and reinvent the very essence of a space. In this article we explore the influence of colours, their transformative power, in the realm of interior décor. RED: The Colour of Passion This emotionally charged colour can bring a vibrant and energetic touch to your interior design. Whether used as an accent or as a dominant hue, Red adds a sense of theatrical daring, excitement, and elegance to any room.   YELLOW: The Colour of Optimism With its natural ability to uplift spirits, the colour Yellow encourages enthusiasm and creativity. Furniture in this colour, such as sofas and chairs, can become statement pieces in a room. When paired with complementary colours like grey or navy blue, it can create an elegant and sophisticated look.
