What do you get when you cross textures and silhouettes from a leading fashion designer with a standout\u00a0French interior architectural design firm? In this case, a\u00a0visual and tactile delight that is the collaborative brainchild of Stefano Pilati, former Yves Saint Laurent lead designer and founder of fashion brand Random Identities...
, Pilati says, have much synergy. ‘It is possible to find some affinities across the industrial aspect of fashion design, where it becomes necessary to recall the physics, gravity, proportions, and tensions shared between elements and surfaces. Upholstery, as a craft, is something a fashion designer can understand with a certain familiarity.’
Pilati and Hariri have joined forces to create a striking capsule furniture collection that is simultaneously dramatic, yet effortless, with fabrics ‘draped’ in clever ways to reveal stimulating geometry and proportions. ‘I draped furniture because it was a temporary solution. I had the chance to stay in a house of overwhelmingly interesting volumes.
The look achieves visual drama despite the more rounded, less stark geometry Pinto has been known for in many of its room designs. According to Hariri, this is not a one-off occurrence for the brand. ‘This collaboration felt like the opportunity to mark a decisive turning point in the Pinto editions.
