Bottega Veneta has announced the opening of a dedicated home boutique in Italy, Via Borgospesso in Milano. Joining Via Sant’Andrea Maison and the historic Via Montenapoleone, the new boutique is Bottega Veneta’s third in the heart of Milan and its first that is dedicated to its furniture, lighting, tabletop and home decoration. The new boutique represents Bottega Veneta’s commitment to its home collection, which has evolved from a single bench designed by Bottega Veneta’s Creative Director, Tomas Maier, that developed into the collection presented in Milan in 2006, to a full lifestyle offering.
Located within the 18th century Palazzo Gallarati Scotti, the 205 square meter ground floor boutique has been conceived and designed by Tomas Maier to present a curated story, bringing luxury and craftsmanship together with local culture and historic architecture. In a refined atmosphere that exudes the comfort and intimacy of a luxurious home, the collections are organized in a series of tableaux, proposing various dining, living, bedroom and studio areas. These are dramatically set against the historic palazzo’s soaring coffered ceilings and remarkable frescoes by 18th century masters Carlo Innocenzo Carlone and Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, providing an exceptionally unique setting that honors the existing beauty of the location.
“The Bottega Veneta home collection is dedicated to those who are drawn to understated, luxurious furnishings crafted with the finest materials… In the heart of Milan, I wanted to create an intimate, discreet destination for clients to be able to immerse themselves in the Italian art de vivre of Bottega Veneta.” says Tomas Maier.
