Draga&Aurel step into Visionnaire’s Wunderkammer with an intertwined narrative: a play of role exchanges between art and design, where the power of colors and painterly gestures illuminates the walls, guiding the immersive journey among collectible design objects.

“I have worked for a long time as a textile designer in fashion, and textiles are my first love-it was natural to imagine bringing Aurel’s works, so powerful and kinetic in force, onto fabric,” says Draga Obradovic.

In a special edition, the Aries armchair is upholstered in a novel loom-made fabric that reinterprets Aurel K. Basedow’s paintings. In the Muse room divider, Aurel’s painting is composed and decomposed: the layering, dear to the artist in his creative process, is entrusted to a play of printed organzas that in movement seem to reproduce the gesture of painting.

Research is a fundamental aspect of the creative journey for Draga & Aurel who, for this project, revisit two of their iconic pieces with new material compositions. The Lego console table comes now with a marble top combined with metal, while the Elysium table, an explicit reference to Amos, offers contrasting geometries and refined text res. Completing the installation is the Tessa separé: a cascade of colors that seem to dissolve amidst interweaving geometries, lights and transparencies.

Visionnaire, founded by the company IPE, based in Bologna since 1959, is a meta-luxury brand of reference in the sector of interior design Made in Italy, renowned for its one-of-a-kind design prowess tailored to respond to the desires of its clients. Benefit company from 2021, Visionnaire bases its activity on the value of knowledge and continuing research on the concept of contemporary beauty, confirming its exceptional ability to create design projects and products of outstanding sartorial workmanship, fostering and restoring value to the skills of local artisans located exclusively across the Italian territory. This desire to protect our natural heritage and human capital leads to awareness that informs and orients the company’s cultural vision, from the selection of materials to the final touches of workmanship required by production cycles, taking on a precise, intense ethical position.
