During Milan Design Week 2019, Elisa Ossino and Josephine Akvama Hoffmeyer revealed an apartment installation in the heart of Brera to present their new collection of tiles H+O launching the exhibition "Perfect darkness". A new concept of home where tiles take centre stage of the project. Besides covering walls and floors, tiles are featured in each room serving as structural and architectonic elements. The apartment informally condenses the function of both residence and gallery, a place where is possible to host meetings, share ideas but also enjoy moments of conviviality.
The installation brings together a selection of furniture, objects and art pieces by international award-winning design studios that share a passion for creativity and innovation.
Elisa Ossino Studio designed the interiors of the apartment. The quintessential features of the project are both tiles, featured in every room of the space, and the use of geometric patterns that runs through the rooms with variations created by the use of different formats. Bespoke furniture with integrated tiles has been created and add character to the space.
The choice of colors, in collaboration with File Under Pop, emphasizes the vibration of light highlighting the sequence of environments in a continuous transition from darker to brighter spaces. All rooms, characterized by the presence of patterns, colours, lights and sounds, are conceived as individual installations in a process of spatial abstraction.
