Inspiration

In search of great literature and small everyday joys, or the other way around. These are the pillars of L'Arte della Gioia, our new back-to-school collection.

L'Arte della Gioia

In this sophisticated interior, the only objects that count are the ones which are perfectly chosen or second-hand, delicately woven, joyfully combined. The Hungarian points creak. The light changes. And from page to page, the adventures continue. The gaze detaches itself for a moment and settles. It is the eye's delight for a true form, a delicate material, an object which is sufficient in itself. Nothing but delight in this house of all imaginations. "I love that moment of pleasure where you turn your gaze away from a book and it suddenly falls on that carefully selected armchair, lamp or tapestry. And then your heart starts racing," says Constance Gennari, our founder and artistic director.

The art of composition

One of the great joys of going back to school comes from arranging your interior like a painting or a novel full of adventures. We have a great history around fabrics, even more so around mixing them. They all fit together, they all combine and each one develops its own power. "I love textured fabrics! I like them to be alive, I like to be able to feel the weaver's hand in it. I love the relief of the fabrics in this new collection." From the velvety

to the second-hand armchairs reupholstered with foliage, including the

whose woven canvas is reminiscent of the wall tapestries of the 1970s, the possibilities are immense.

Poufs Fiori

In a nod to the iconic base of the Gioia, our new

takes the shape of a flower.

The art of contrasts

"The decoration is a story of contrast where the large gaps which seem audacious are actually terribly joyful." At The Socialite Family, we like to place the

brushed metal coffee table, with its seventies feel, in the very centre of our

sculptural rug, inspired by Renaissance gardens in the style of Le Nôtre. And to light it all up? Our new

fixture, very 1980s, whose recycled acrylic and brass finish brilliantly participate in this game of oppositions.

Lampadaire Stelle

The art of colours

The three-colour rule in decoration is challenged. The challenge of daring to go beyond all conventions to stimulate your decoration. L'Arte della Gioia is the collection par excellence which encourages you to play with textures, patterns and nuances. Tweed blue, warm ochre, foliage tapestry blend perfectly with vermilion wool or deep emerald-green velvet. Pink, for its part, has found a place for itself: "Each color has its interesting nuances. This is the case with pink, which we like to make our own, sometimes making it electric or, quite the reverse, softer. For this new collection, we worked on it in the Studio so that it is powdery or even brick-like."

This season, the sofa

rug makes its entrance.

Miroir Marcello brique

The exquisite

mirror is now available in a brick color.

The art of shapes

Triangular silhouettes make their grand entrance with the L'Arte della Gioia collection: in the Triangolo table, but also in the Stelle light fixture and in a touch with the geometric patterns of the Medaglia rug. Clean lines which we can also find with the Scala rug and its notched borders. A remarkable work due to its form, which requires four times as much time to produce at the prestigious Manufacture Pinton.
