I DON’T KNOW WHERE I’M GOING FROM HERE

BUT I PROMISE IT WON’T BE BORING

HELTER SKELTER
CAPSULE COLLECTION

In the 1960s, society experienced a cultural youth revolt that rejected conservative conventions and models.
Not approval according to rigid schemes, but freedom of aesthetic expression.
Helter Skelter is a tribute to the age of contamination between the arts, of spasmodic research into the new,
of experimentation and complete liberation from schemes.
It is a still image that wants to re-read that moment of the Beat Generation. A Capsule featuring casual
shapes, a fusion of formal and informal, disrespectful of contemporary trends but with a memory of lines,
materials and colors that interpret and re-elaborate that aesthetic.

FLEURS DU MAL
CAPSULE COLLECTION

In his poetry, Baudelaire states that the only way to learn is to travel and experiment. From here the stylistic
journey of GIOPAGANI starts.
The avant-garde as a free interpretation of simple forms, of historical memories that lead to a grunge brutalism.
A collection that emphasizes the material, the primal soul of the Capsule Collection.
This capsule suggests an androgynous attitude, full of transversal sensuality. A symbol of the avant-garde style
involved in the creative process.

SENZA FINE
CAPSULE COLLECTION

Senza Fine is a Capsule Collection inspired by the iconic design movement of the 50s Italian Style: a cultural
approach to the continuous “search for beauty” which has established the central role of Italian design at
international level, with names like Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Carlo Scarpa and Dino Gavina.
A tribute to a period, made of clean and simple lines but also of colors and expressiveness.

SARTORIA
CAPSULE COLLECTION

Sartoria highlights “Haute Couture” garments where both the attention to the material
and the details are the main elements of this collection.
Starting point of a philosophy that draws its inspiration from the Fashion world to be
reinterpreted into Design, Sartoria dresses its products exalting a pure soul.

UNKNOWN PLEASURES
CAPSULE COLLECTION

A journey that retraces the multi-faceted sounds, rich in cues, indications, trends of the New Wave movement of the 1980s,
which in Italy became the search for an essential, sculpted, and clean line.
Unknown Pleasures leads into this complex universe that is its own undetermined genre, full of a thousand rivulets, that finds
its fundamental characteristic in the synthetic simplification of the approach.
The use of an essential formal lexicon composed of a few elements, the executive rigor, and the absence of decoration give life
to geometrically defined objects formed by the repetition and variation of primary elements, pure and simple forms.

CAPSULE COLLECTION

Illogica Allegria represents a more contemporary approach to the reinterpretation

of the late deco aesthetic.
The collection features a masterpiece: the Chandelier represents the maximum
expression of the collection, also composed of floor and suspension lamps.

ÉCLAT D’EAU
CAPSULE COLLECTION

With a late Art Deco inspiration, the Capsule Collection Éclat d’Eau clothes a room’s mood and
temperature with light. It is a presence that adds an accent and contributes to the look as a whole.
Éclat d’Eau lights are both in Murano glass and metal. The hand-blown glass diffusers, ranging
from deep Amber to Antique Green and a nuanced white that shades to transparent, are paired
with metal structures in polished brass and matte black pigment.

LAY ON YOU
CAPSULE COLLECTION

GIOPAGANI’s leitmotif is to give life to unique spaces and environments, tailor made to satisfy different tastes without being ordinary.
The fulfillment of this purpose passes through the attention to details, turning each element of the scene in an actor participating to the
conversation that brings to the extraordinary.
The carpet collection is one of these details. Fully hand knotted with antique techniques, made with absoulte care and the finest natural
materials, GIOPAGANI carpets want to bring the luxury furniture accessories to a new dimension driven by the bespoke approach of the
Maison’s philosophy.
