Marco Piva, an Italian architecture and design guru, will present a special seminar entitled “Italian Design: The Pursuit of Beauty” at this week’s Italian Luxury Interiors show (March 4-6 in Abu Dhabi).
Piva will share this thoughts on the future of design and why he believes the ‘new will come from the old’.
Fancesco Alfonsi, the UAE-based Italian trade commissioner who is behind the three-day interactive exhibition in the capital, said: “ We have invited Piva to be a part of this event to throw the spotlight on the Italian heritage and vision in design and architecture to the UAE community.”
“Piva has touched numerous high-profile projects, mixed-used buildings and residences across the globe, including the UAE. However, his design skill also penetrates interiors and he is known for sought-after ranges from seating to floor coverings,” Alfonsi advised.
Piva is the name behind the quirky balloon seat, as well as a retail rug range, known as Soft Landscapes. His Leucos and Tattoo lighting ranges can be purchased online for use in home environments.
