Bulgari Hotel. Milan / April 2008 / The New York Times Style Magazine
The New York Times Style Magazine and the International Herald Tribune Style Magazine hosted a special event to kick off Seeing the Light, a special exhibition curated by T Magazine.
The installation unfolds from the corridor of the Bulgari Hotel where seven Flos Superarchimoon lamps cast a spotlight on the iconic T graphic, printed on aluminum sheeting.
12 installations, arranged outside in the hotel’s manicured gardens, are housed in oversized wooden cargo-like crates and marked with the T graphic on their sides. The boxes are open on one side to reveal upholstered and neon-light trimmed interiors, showcasing objects by some of the design world’s most influential names, including illuminated vases by Serralunga, Rosenthal and Emu; glass pieces by La Murrina; chairs by Bonaldo, Kartell, Edra, Moroso and Driade; lamps by Artemide; Glo-balls by Flos; a lit-up sofa by Mario Bellini for Meritalia; and a glowing Swing Lamp by BCXSY.
