In its first special partnership with Design Miami/, Bottega Veneta presents a site-specific installation based on an unprecedented commission assigned to Gaetano Pesce, invited by the creative director of the brand Matthieu Blazy to imagine a space in Milan for the Summer 2023 fashion show.

Featuring a resin floor and the Come Stai? seating in the same material, with 400 different chromatic variants, the installation reaches Miami with a selection of pieces available for purchase (prices from 6500 to 10,900 dollars) at the brand’s boutique in the Design District (153 NE 40th St).

Every chair, molded in resin, is actually a one-off, different in form and color, a tribute to the diversity of human beings and the qualities that set them apart. “Otherwise – Pesce says – we would only be copies.”
