With carefully curated retro notes, doing away with nostalgic replicas, the Venti20 Collection by Gessi breathes new life into signature elements the roaring ‘20s are known for – the detailing, the iconic style, the playful essence…
Designed by Spanish interior decorator Lázaro Rosa Violán for Gessi, the Venti20 Collection is characterised by the purity of form and the chromatic beauty of the finishes that intrigues the imagination. The formal details of the design are beautifully nuanced, resulting in an eclectic finish with a distinctly Art Deco vibe. The collection is clearly born in a period, and perhaps more than ever before, we should draw upon our ability to imagine extraordinary things, to dream fantastical dreams, and to renew our pursuit of beauty. Great design has emotional power and an innate ability to instil beauty into everyday objects. Venti20 captures that essence and allows us to rediscover the grace and invigorating spirit of the 1920’s, – drawing inspiration from that remarkable era to bring the ‘spirit of the age’ to the modern world with all its energy, optimism and joy.
The collection embodies the enthusiasm for life and future-looking optimism of the era and infuses it into the most private spaces of contemporary living. Venti20 designs are not limited to accessories but include furnishings with the same strong visual identity. Elegantly detailed profiles pair with simple, pure lines to work together as functional works of art. The meticulous workmanship of the handles and the base of the long umbrella spout recall a classic style, reimagined for a new era. The eclectic mix of classic and modern design elements fits neatly into any style, adding a touch of dramatic elegance to the space.
The design detail of this collection is what sets it apart. The elegance and harmony of the high sink mixer work together to create a design intended as a functional sculpture for bathrooms. This jewel-like object, with its reflective curves and cuts, adds light to the space and perfectly blends into the narrative of the style. The Warm Bronze finish is the perfect embodiment of classic ‘20s style with a dynamic infusion of contemporary energy, perfect for any design space and style. The sleek silhouette of Venti20 is notable for the grooves along its body, adding interest and texture to this jewel-like object.
The bathroom fixtures and accessories in this collection bring into play iconic design elements while the shine of metallic surface treatments to create a chicly coordinated ensemble. With decisive cuts, lavish details and unexpected plays on light, the essence of Venti20 is characterised by both beauty and durability. New forms and original details come together in a classic yet contemporary blend.
