Nina Yashar’s multicultural background has allowed her to free herself from any classic definition of style —she has created the most sophisticated associations between modern furniture and contemporary productions — and has pushed the boundaries of this profession to become the most talented gallerist, editor, curator, producer of the business.
I designed "Chez Nina", the very private club opened during the last Salone in Milan, as a tribute to Nina and a celebration to our complicity.
The coloured velvet banquettes and the acid candy glass tables have been designed especially for the space — to contrast with the silk mural geometric landscape produced by English tailor of the homes, De Gournay —
A selection of lights and furniture pieces from Nina’s collection add a layer of sophistication — Gio Ponti armchairs, Martino Gamper’s poufs, Lelli’s floor lamp.
A new experience in Milan.
