Bottega Veneta: Lightness
Bottega Veneta has opened its first Maison in the prestigious location of Via Sant’Andrea 15 in Milan, Italy.
The interior of the Maison was conceived and designed by Tomas Maier, Creative Director, to centre upon the idea of lightness. Lending to the luminosity of the space is the presence of large windows, balconies, and a glass-encased courtyard, with a fountain at its center. The space was designed to reflect the complete identity of Bottega Veneta in the country where the brand has its roots, in a location that both honours and represents the beauty and discretion of Milanese architecture.
Italian design heritage is evoked through the use of Venetian terrazzo in the entrance area, made with marble in light Asiago pink, botticino, arabesque red and Verona white. A large curved staircase maintains a central position within the space and is crafted from light glass, tulipwood and bronzed metal. The interior is are complimented with mohair furniture upholstery with leather detail.
The Maison is located at Via Sant’Andrea 15 in Milan and showcases the entire brand product range including women’s and men’s Ready to Wear, accessories, as well as furniture and items for the home. The new store represents an addition to the historic flagship located at Via Montenapoleone 5, thus becoming the second Bottega Veneta boutique in the heart of Milan’s high-fashion district.
