“A project that succeeds in the search for good living by understanding the architectural making. This leads to feeling at ease in one of the most vibrant cities of the world, London. It is an honour to represent together with Molteni Group the quintessence of Italian design by creating a unique momentum in the city of bankers and creators.” Vincent Van Duysen.
“一个通过理解建筑制作而成功地寻找美好生活的项目。这使得在世界上最有活力的城市之一伦敦感到轻松自在。我荣幸地与Molteni集团一起代表意大利设计的精髓，在银行家和创作者的城市中创造出独特的势头。“文森特·范杜森。

The space encloses the very latest offering of the Group’s two brands: Molteni-C and Dada, and symbolises a life marked by Italian flair with the intimacy of a private home. The concept defining this space – measuring over 700 square metres with five shop windows – is played out over two levels linked by a dramatic staircase. The new architectural design is faithful to the original features of the building: it has maintained its sense of space and preserved the perception of its original design from the late 1800s. The separating walls subdivide generous volumes, interspersed by tall travertine marble-clad portals. Each zone provides a stunning backdrop for items instantly recognisable as Vincent Van Duysen’s signature designs. A particularly breath-taking entrance, built on an inner door opens on to two floor-to-ceiling glass screens. A magnificent iconic staircase then appears, the walnut cladding of which complements the travertine marble steps. The same marble used for the portals. The floor-to-ceiling wooden entrance way – already synonymous with the brand’s distinctive style – has been re-proposed in a version proportionate to the scale of the building. Visitors will find themselves guided by a skillful choice of lighting along a pathway featuring different spatial, material and stylistic sensations. They will be immersed in a sequence of evocative settings and in the emotion of alternating spaces and structures of the products, each representing the hallmark features of the Group’s two brands.

As art director of the project, Vincent Van Duysen has introduced distinctive elements such as the partitions between the rooms and the winter gardens, brimming with luxuriant plants. Sophisticated materials, the warm, golden colours of the travertine marble and walnut complement with various shades of warm and bone greys. The theme of alternating perceptions also features in the choice of finishes for the suspended wooden ceilings, made both flat and with Korean walnut beams. The ambience is a triumph of the Belgian designer’s architectural concept. The space is gracious, welcoming, dimensional, fluid and always legible thanks to distinctive details. This high-impact scenic space contains, frames and enhances the products of the new collections designed by Vincent van Duysen, Rodolfo Dordoni, Ron Gilad, Foster   Partners, Jean Nouvel and Patricia Urquiola, amongst others. The first floor features the Group’s iconic pieces. The Paul seating system and the wall-system Grid, the VVD kitchen, the Gliss Master wardrobe system and the Albert sofa are effectively showcased in each setting, alternating between Gio Ponti’s final creations and a choice of pieces from the Heritage Collection.
作为该项目的艺术总监，文森特·范杜森引入了独特的元素，如房间和冬季花园之间的隔断，充满了繁茂的植物。精致的材料，温暖的，金色的石灰华大理石和核桃补充了各种色调的温暖和骨灰色。主题的交替感知也有特点，在选择饰面的悬挂木制天花板，作出了扁平和韩国胡桃木梁。这种氛围是比利时设计师建筑理念的胜利。空间是优雅的，欢迎的，维度的，流畅的，总是清晰的，感谢独特的细节。这一影响很大的景观空间包含了文森特·范杜森、鲁道夫·多诺迪、罗恩·吉拉德、福斯特·伙伴、让·努维尔和帕特里夏·乌基奥拉等人设计的新系列的产品，并对其进行了框架和改进。一楼的特色是集团的标志性作品。保罗座位系统和墙壁系统网格、VVD厨房、Gliss Master衣柜系统和Albert沙发在每个场景中都有效地展示了吉奥·庞蒂的最终创作和遗产收藏中的作品。

The lower floor, defined by a cornice of structural niches, individually lit and furnished like the wings of a theatre, is accessed by the downward staircase, and it opens into a large living-room. The night area displays a sequence of Gliss Master wardrobes and a Grid wall system featuring a Ribbon bed.
下层是由结构壁龛的檐口所定义，个别地发光，并像剧院的翅膀一样，由向下的楼梯进入，它通向一个大客厅。夜间区域显示一个Gliss主衣柜序列和一个带带状床的网格墙系统。
