Description
Extreme decorations, rich details and unmistakable traits of baroque style; this collection actualises this style which has always had a predilection for curved and sinuous lines, for the ostentation of gold decorations and precious materials like metals and stones.
Baroque introduces ironic touches to the style of the late Italian Renaissance period to reduce the sometimes pompous style of the structures of that period; the structures are actualised and interpreted in contemporary terms.
A gigantic console table become a bookcase, the Provence style plaster trimmings lower the tone and leave a clean look in line with the poor fabrics selected to attenuate the exuberance of the baroque lines: ecru, jute, linen, and neutral shades are skilfully combined to simplify a very rich product. Tone-on-tone shades add a modern feel and very free stylistic touches contaminate a style rich in features.
