CRISTINA CELESTINO

Cristina Celestino was born in Pordenone in 1980. After graduating from the Università Iuav in Venice (Higher Institute of Architecture of Venice), in 2005 she began to work with several prestigious firms and focused her attention on interior architecture and design.

In 2010 she moved to Milan, where she founded her brand, Attico Design. As an architect-designer, Cristina Celestino designs projects both for private clients and for companies such as Fendi/Fendi Casa, Fornace Brioni and CC-Tapis, as well as providing creative direction, interiors, and fixtures for Sergio Rossi..

Cristina Celestino has won numerous international awards, including the Special Jury Prize "Salone del Mobile Milano Award" in 2016 and the ELLE DECO International Design Awards in the Wallcovering category in 2017 with Plumage for Botteganove and in 2019 with Giardino delle Delizie for Fornace Brioni.

In September 2022, Cristina Celestino was elected "designer of the year" by Maison & Objet, which devoted an entire space to her during its September edition, around a project called "Exotic Palace".

Cristina Celestino has imagined for Maison Matisse a collection inspired by Henri Matisse's painting Intérieur aux eggplants (1911), composed of several seats (sofas, armchairs), coffee tables, folding screens, household linen, wallpapers and decorative objects.

INFORMATION

INSPIRATION 

Designed by Cristina Celestino, the Belle-épine cushion's fabric takes its inspiration from the fruit and vegetable display, as well as the arabesque motifs, found on Henri Matisse's Intérieur aux Aubergines painting from 1911, widely considered one of the artist's most decorative works.

ARTS AND MATERIALS

QUALITY 

Thanks to its ultra-soft texture, the Belle-épine cushion invites comfort and conviviality, creating a sensory experience conducive to a relaxing atmosphere. Made from a jacquard fabric in an all-over pattern, it is woven using natural fibers in a traditional Italian workshop, whose craftsmanship dates back to the 18th century.

Made in a contrasting trim, the ruffles bordering this designer cushion give it an ornamental feel. The cushion is sold with its insert and the cover can be removed for easy cleaning.

It is available in two color schemes: presented here in duck green, red and blue tones, it also comes in an ochre, blue and red version.

Using a jacquard loom to weave the fabric produces a unique and sophisticated texture. Numerous weaving tests were carried out in order to achieve the four different colors designed by Cristina Celestino.

The opaque aspect of the cotton creates a contrast with the semi-glossy appearance of the natural viscose, adding a sense of depth to the pattern.
