Motoring Meets Interior Design

During Milan Design Week 2023, Bentley Home launched a collection in collaboration with three world-renowned designers and architects: Federico Peri, Riccardo Cavaciocchi and Carlo Colombo. The capsule reaffirms the substance and elegance of Bentley Home Design in partnership with leading creatives engaged for their talent and innovative use of sustainable materials, organic forms, expert craftsmanship and cutting-edge production technology. Federico Peri created a table series, including a dining table, a side table and a coffee table, which is available in a new Paper Marble finish by Paper Factor. Architect Riccardo Cavaciocchi, the founder of Paper Factor, has created a tabletop finish similar in look and feel to marble but created using ‘raw paper’ and natural pigments. And architect Carlo Colombo designed a sofa and armchair, inspired by a Bentley car with a fine wooden frame and beautifully proportioned curves, and a bed.

Custom Made

Celine has launched its La Collection De Saint-Tropez capsule inspired by the French Riviera. The brand’s designer Hedi Slimane moved to the region when she joined Celine in 2018 and for the past five years, she has been exploring Saint-Tropez, reflecting the sophisticated nostalgia of the area in parallel with the brand’s Parisian codes. La Collection De Saint-Tropez campaign was shot along the French Riviera coastline and to make it extra special, Celine customised a vintage Mini Moke vehicle. The small summer beach convertible car was initially designed for military purposes. It first appeared in 1964 but quickly became a symbol of freedom and leisure in many seaside towns, especially in Saint-Tropez, where French actress Brigitte Bardot famously drove it. The automobile has been personalised with a Triomphe wooden steering wheel, a Triomphe canvas hood and a dashboard featuring tan leather elements, wicker seats and spare wheel protection. A golden Triomphe signature appears on the wheels and gear shift – a cute element added to the campaign.
