Designed by Rosita Missoni, the collection at Missoni Home embodies the magic of the endless interplay that links furnishing and fashion.

November-2014_Pick_of_Month_01Cool tones and linear graphics form a concrete counterbalance to eccentricity in the Missoni Home outlet which recently opened in Aali Shopping Complex. The chairs dressed in patchwork are particularly distinctive, as are the round outdoor chairs with leather lacing and the interior chairs upholstered in printed or embroidered fabrics.

The chunky-knit rugs are a must-have for the season. Unusual items include balloon lamps wound in wool yarn, outdoor ‘director’ chairs, sculptural sun beds and deckchairs, which offer some serious relaxation.

Oversized, rigorous chevron and zigzags run hither and thither on PVC, embroidered on tulle and embossed on wool.

Floral prints are outlined in black on white for outdoor fabrics and leave their mark on vintage velvet. Of course, there’s plenty of the trademark Missoni design — bold, pictorial stripes in shaded or bright bands on sheer backgrounds.

Furnishings are very soft: cushions, poufs, rugs and eye-catching fabric panels. The matching elements are sofas, chairs, lamps and low tables. Material textures are alternated and contrasted with leather, PVC or wood, offering an unusual perspective. The stunning sofas upholstered in watercolours and trompe l’oeil, leather sofas in classic shades and geometrically shaped poufs are the new pieces in the collection.
