DESIGNER
CRISTINA CELESTINO
For the permanent collection Intérieur aux aubergines, Maison Matisse was inspired by Henri Matisse's eponymous painting from 1911 and collaborated with the Italian designer Cristina Celestino.
This choice seemed self-evident. The designer’s world is perfectly adapted to that of the artist’s painting in this particularly decorative canvas where the planes deeply superimpose each other.
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 & Object, 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.

MAINTENANCE ADVICE
Maison Matisse recommends professional cleaning should a visual stain appear. The Merino wool blanket does not require any particular care: at the end of winter, we recommend leaving it outdoors for a night to air out before leaving it in a cupboard in its original pouch until next season.
INSPIRATION
DDesigner Cristina Celestin was inspired by the color palette found on Henri Matisse's Intérieur aux Aubergines (1911) to create 4 two-tone wool blankets that complete her collection created in collaboration with Maison Matisse. To design the wool blankets, Cristina Celestino took certain graphic elements found at the heart of Henri Matisse's work, for example the frame or the stitching.
The Merino wool blanket is framed by flat patches of color that are superimposed onto one another to create a playful chromatic contrast while staying faithful to the tones used by the artist Henri Matisse. The edge is embellished with the characteristic festoon stitch in contrasting colors.
ART
Constructed in a jacquard fabric whose weave gives it a two-tone double-sided appearance, this Merino wool blanket guarantees both warmth and an ideal lightness. The use of a jacquard loom makes it possible to create complex patterns on the fabric. This extra-fine Merino wool blanket is made in Italy, woven by an renowned producer that combines innovation and tradition.
Apart from being a perfect material for your interior as it depollutes the environment, the merino wool is also respectful on the skin as it is non-allergenic. Like some plants, it purifies the air of several harmful substances that are present in our homes like formaldehyde (released from paint, glue and resins found in furniture) and nitrogen oxide.
