BELLE-ÉPINE CUSHION
Designed by Cristina Celestino
Floor cushions can be used to decorate a bedroom and add a cozy feel, or can be used as seating around a coffee table, like our rattan Bianca coffee table for example. You could also create your own reading spot on your veranda or in a child's bedroom.
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 & 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.

Produced using traditional Italian craftsmanship, our floor cushions are pieces that shine a spotlight on their luxurious material. This green floor cushion has been woven on a jacquard loom, making it possible to create intricate patterned fabrics. Its mechanics control each individual thread, allowing infinite interweaving and binding options with the weft threads, a true feat of craftsmanship.
INSPIRATION
The Belle-épine floor cushion, with its shape and patterns, reinterprets the Orientalist style found in Henri Matisse's Intérieur aux Aubergines (1911), one of the artist's most creative works and the source of Italian designer Cristina Celestino's inspiration
