We immerse ourselves within its scenographic scenes thanks to a fluid and sensory interpretation of contemporary living: «Mediterranean – slow trend It is a narrative that slips between light, material and color, a journey that crosses the Mediterranean and captures its rhythm, warmth, suspension of time. A story that translates into a living space, in which the design does not expose itself but is experienced, crosses, breathes, between baskets that descend from the balconies, ice cream, coffee and fruit, in an invitation to live the Mediterranean through gestures, flavors and shared rituals « .

But there is more: From this year home Ornella becomes a permanent spacea continuous change showhouse, a hub that exceeds the concept of exposure to take place of research and relationship, a place of encounters and talk. Here, brands and professionals will be able to meet and tell each other, through events, lunches & learn, thematic workshops and custom -sewn collaborations.
