Iconic design material meets world-class master in colour and style

What happens when you combine a global star among design and architecture materials with a world-class master in colour and style ? The result is one of the most inspiring events of the design week taking place in Milan, a project filled with sunny personality and ironic imaginative spirit: “CORIAN® loves MISSONI”.

“CORIAN® loves MISSONI” is an exhibition that creates a visionary residential interior - emotionally warm, enticing and visually inspiring - expressing the design versatility of DuPont™ Corian® solid surfaces through the style of Missoni. The interior environments of “CORIAN® loves MISSONI” are at once rational and essential, yet rich in colour, taste and imagination, reflecting the extraordinary creativity and the skills in colour research and combination that have made the Missoni style so unique and distinctive since the 60’s.

Rosita and Luca Missoni have created elegant chromatic associations enhancing the expressive potential of the colours of DuPont™ Corian® and have conceived a variety of decorative effects playing with different technologies for the surface treatment of DuPont™ Corian®, such as sublimation printing and carving with advanced machine-tooling techniques.

Art directed by Rosita Missoni and supervised by her son Luca Missoni, the project “CORIAN® loves MISSONI” is strongly characterized by MissoniHome patterns, unexpected colour combinations and iconic design pieces that reflect the company’s strong tradition of textile and fashion design.

About the MissoniHome brand - The Home Collection is designed by Rosita Missoni and stands out for its sunny personality and creative spirit, in which a strong sense of colour interweaves with manufacturing excellence. Today the MissoniHome brand (www.missonihome.com) denotes a vast selection of multiform, multi-coloured elements.

This rich mosaic of fabrics and furnishings is an expression of a modern and contemporary mood, the product of a collaboration between two leading companies: Missoni (fashion www.missoni.com) and T&J Vestor (home textiles and furnishings since 1921). Creativity and design coordination are the talents of Rosita Missoni, who translates and transfers into the home practical reality the inspirations and emotions drawn from the world of fashion.
