The creative universe of Versace has always encompassed many disciplines, not just fashion, but design in the broadest sense and the essential art of living. Since the start in 1992 each furniture collection exemplified the inherent Versace quality of mixing the heritage with the modern, the Ancient Greek with Pop Culture. The Versace family’s renowned love for art, objects and furnishings led to the development of an innovative interior design that takes the Fashion House’s glamour and luxury into everyday living, from luxury resorts and hotels to private residences.

Since the start in 1992, Versace Home has been creating collections of furniture, which combine the House’s love of both classical antiquity and innovative modernity. The tension inspired by this mix lies at the very core of the Versace brand.
Each succeeding collection has introduced new themes, always linked to established decorative emblems, such as the Medusa or the neo-classical Greek key fret. Soft wrap shapes, eclectic materials, and timeless color combinations defined Versace Home. Its capacity to express the ‘now’ mood is conveyed by a light and pervasive flavor of neoclassical tradition combined with a modern approach.
