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.

ARTS AND MATERIALS
Thanks to its ultra soft touch, the Belle-Épine rectangle cushion is an invitation to conviviality and comfort. Allowing to create a relaxed atmosphere and proposes to the creativity, it has a jacquard fabric with an all-over pattern, woven by an Italian manufacture whose tradition and know-how date back to the XVIIIth century. Made with contrasting bias, the ruffles present on the cushion give it an ornamental and singular character.
The jacquard weaving was chosen in order to create new and sophisticated textures effects. Numerous weaving tests had to be carried out before succeeding in obtaining the four different weft colors imagined by Cristina Celestino. The opaque aspect of the cotton creates a contrast with the semi-glossy aspect of the natural viscose to give an impression of depth to the pattern.
