ARTE COLORE QUALITA’ UNICITA’ ARTIGIANALITA’ ARTE - Collaborazioni Illustri VENINI approda al ventunesimo secolo con un bagaglio di esperienze creative e produttive che la rendono “il” brand delle più straordinarie realizzazioni in vetro soffiato e lavorato a mano. Hanno contribuito a rinnovare e ampliare la gamma esistente collaborazioni artistiche con nomi del design, dell’arte e dell’architettura. Tra questi citiamo: TADAO ANDO ATELIER OÏ GAE AULENTI EMMANUEL BABLED MARIO BELLINI M.GUGGISBERG P. BALDWIN BARBER & OSGERBY FULVIO BIANCONI RODOLFO DORDONI D. e M. FUKSASS A. MENDINI FABIO NOVEMBRE LEONARDO CARLO SCARPA ETTORE SOTTSASS MATTEO THUN GIORGIO VIGNA TAPIO WIRKKALA RANUCCI COLORE – 125 colori I colori VENINI e le tecniche di lavorazione sono parte di un patrimonio culturale tramandato di generazione in generazione, che diventa una perfetta testimonianza del saper lavorare il vetro a mano. I nomi dei colori VENINI sono sempre evocativi, frutto di una ricerca attenta e appassionata. Pagliesco, Verde Menta, Orizzonte, Acquamare, Viola, Verde Mela, Giallo, sono solo alcuni nomi dei colori VENINI. A vederli realizzati sembrano frutto di una semplice scelta, ma sono il risultato di una lunga e appassionata formulazione, per ricercare combinazioni cromatiche sempre attuali e che non ci lasciano mai insensibili. QUALITÁ La qualità VENINI è una costante ricerca ed innovazione partendo da un patrimonio storico che è associata al nome dell’isola di Murano. VENINI ha saputo grazie alle sue maestranze e agli artisti proporre Opere in vetro soffiato e lavorato a mano di altissima qualità. UNICITÁ L’unicità della produzione VENINI è data dalla lavorazione artigianale seguita in tutte le sue fasi. In VENINI esiste un «Genius Loci» che permette di evidenziare un diverso modo di vedere il vetro e la sua lavorazione, interessante alternativa alla consolidata tradizione muranese che fanno di VENINI un esempio di unicità dove ogni creazione è diversa dalle altre. ARTIGIANALITÁ VENINI dal 1921 realizza autentici capolavori in vetro soffiato e lavorati a mano. La sintesi perfetta tra arte centenaria e design contemporaneo. Le importanti realizzazioni esistenti in tutto il mondo e nei principali Musei d’Arte sono la testimonianza della creatività e dell’artigianalità del Made in Italy.

  • Kartell Célèbre L'icône De La Marque, Créée Par Anna Castelli Ferrieri
    Kartell célèbre l’icône de la marque, créée par Anna Castelli Ferrieri Un classique intemporel, depuis toujours tourné vers le futur : Componibili a 50 ans et Kartell dédie un événement spécial à cette icône intemporelle, créée par Anna Castelli Ferrieri et devenue immédiatement un succès commercial durable de la marque. Pour célébrer cet anniversaire, il a été demandé à des designers, des conservateurs, des critiques et des intellectuels du monde entier d’apporter leur propre contribution personnelle. À l›occasion de l›ouverture du « Salone del Mobile 2017 », la boutique phare de Milan, située Via Turati, est transformée en exposition débutant le mardi 4 avril et s’achevant le 9 avril. L’histoire des Componibili fait une place à l’objet dans son évolution au fi l des décennies, en présentant les produits de manière théâtrale dans toutes leurs couleurs et hauteurs, grâce à un grand nombre d’images, de dessins d’archives et de documents qui les accompagnent. L’acteur principal de l’exposition, qui va devenir un modèle d’exposition transportable applicable dans d’autres musées et lieux d’exposition internationaux de prestige, est par conséquent le produit lui-même, dans sa déclinaison passée et actuelle. « L’anniversaire des Componibili d’Anna Castelli Ferrieri, est un événement très spécial, comportant de nombreuses signifi cations dans la mesure où il relate les origines et les racines de Kartell et où il a marqué l’histoire du design par sa dimension de nouveauté absolue, devenant une icône des produits industriels, a déclaré Claudio Luti, président de Kartell. Les Componibili sont pour moi un «objet» familial, ils ont toujours fait partie de ma «vie».

  • Fabio Novembre: “La Città Per Me È Una Ragnatela Sentimentale, La Sento Mia, Ogni Angolo È Legato Ai Ricordi”
    MARZO - APRILE 2012 N. 07 CLUB MILANO Fabio Novembre: “La città per me è una ragnatela sentimentale, la sento mia, ogni angolo è legato ai ricordi”. Due fotografi, un caravan e un anno a disposizione per raccontare il volto nascosto e inaspettato del Giappone. L’ultima tendenza? Dare vita a locali e negozi alla moda mantenendo le insegne storiche della vecchia Milano. Spazi infiniti, colori indimenticabili e silenzio assoluto, questa è la magia del deserto a qualsiasi latitudine. Poste Italiane s.p.a. - Spedizione in Abbonamento Postale - 70% - LO/MI 3,00 euro Club Milano_SP_Layout 10 29/02/2012 12:17 Page 1 EDITORIAL HACKETT.COM Anniversario Con questo numero il progetto Club Milano compie un anno. Una tappa importante per chi ci ha lavorato con passione e per chi ci ha investito tanto. Ho scritto volu- tamente “progetto” perché pensare, costruire e far crescere un prodotto editoriale oggi è quanto di più “progettuale” si possa pensare. La passione, i sogni e lo slancio che tutti i giorni ci spingono ad andare oltre le difficoltà a un certo punto devono necessariamente lasciare spazio alla fredda legge dei numeri. Un progetto è prima di tutto una visione, ma per rimanere tale e non dissolversi come neve al sole deve avere lo sguardo lungo e le basi solide. Io credo fortemente che per Club Milano sia così. Da parte nostra abbiamo cercato di raccontare la città che ci ospita e che amiamo con lo spirito a volte di un cronista, a volte di un viaggiatore curioso. Milano è molto più dinamica e multiforme di quanto appaia a chi ci vive e ne è in parte assuefatto.

  • BMW I Born Electric Tour Makes First Stop in Rome
    Corporate Communications Press Release 22 June 2012 BMW i Born Electric Tour makes first stop in Rome. The Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome marked the starting point for the worldwide tour of BMW i – the sub-brand of BMW which encompasses sustainable mobility. The full program is available at www.bmw-i.it. Rome. The BMW Group inaugurated the BMW i Born Electric Tour at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni located at Via Nazionale 194 in Rome. The worldwide tour will go on to visit six other major cities over the next 12 months: Dusseldorf, Tokyo, New York, London, Paris, and Shanghai. BMW i was introduced by the BMW Group last year and is now in the process of preparing for the launch of vehicles under the brand in coming years. The models will be characterized by extremely low environmental impact and designed for the express purpose of reconciling the demands for individual mobility and sustainability. Two prototypes are being presented at the event: the BMW i3 Concept and the BMW i8 Concept. With its zero-emissions all-electric engine and a range of about 150 km, the BMW i3 Concept was designed expressly for city use. True to BMW, it also offers a dynamic driving experience. “We are very proud,” stated Franz Jung, President and Managing Director of BMW Italia S.p.A., “that this world tour is starting out from Italy and from the city of Rome. This major urban city is predestined for innovative solutions and we wanted to confirm our commitment to sustainable mobility. Furthermore, we believe that the automobile represents an asset for society in terms of contributing to the creation of value, and at the same time, represents an irreplaceable means of individual mobility.” The presentation in Rome is designed to demonstrate the BMW Group’s holistic approach to future mobility, not only in terms of products displayed, but also in terms of networking information, technologies, and transportation systems.
