Gaetano Pesce creates swirling resin set for Bottega Veneta at Milan Fashion Week
Italian architect Gaetano Pesce created a colourful resin-covered floor and designed 400 cotton-and-resin chairs for fashion brand Bottega Veneta's Spring Summer 2023 show in Milan.
The set was commissioned by Bottega Veneta creative director Matthieu Blazy, who presented his second collection for the house at Milan Fashion Week.
The show took place during Milan Fashion Week
The temporary show space featured a custom resin-poured floor and 400 chairs that were not only a new design for Pesce, who is known for his colourful and tactile works with resin, but also his first original chair in years.
Bottega Veneta's Spring Summer 2023 show took place in a vast concrete space that saw Pesce's colour-pooled, resin-poured floor swirl between the walls of the warehouse-style room. Gaetano Pesce created a custom resin-poured floor and 400 chairs
Named 'Come Stai"', the Pesce-designed chairs filled the Milanese building and followed the sculptural shapes of the floor that marked the runway in tones of pink, blue, orange and lilac.
"This space is a tribute to diversity," said Pesce. "It is about the human being; we are all different. People who say we are all the same ? fuck them!"
"We are all different and this is our defining quality ? otherwise, we are just a copy," he added. "We are all originals and this is one of the themes of my design."
