An immersive Buccellati exhibition celebrating the beauty of nature through exceptional craftsmanship is set for Milan Design Week. The “Naturalia” exhibit, running April 8–13 at Piazza Tomasi di Lampedusa, invites visitors on a sensory journey into the heart of Buccellati’s artistry.
Buccellati has collaborated with Balich Wonder Studio, known for its engaging live experiences, to craft an extraordinary world where Buccellati’s silver decorative objects (including those pictured here) become part of nature’s intricate beauty. In Naturalia’s three realms—the ethereal forest, the majestic mountains, and the hypnotic sea—Buccellati silver pieces are showcased in site-specific installations. Each space is brought to life with surreal details reminiscent of Magritte and Dürer.
The Buccellati objects will be set in immersive environments enhanced by video projections, soundscapes, and olfactory elements. Designed as a contemporary cabinet of curiosities, Naturalia blends realism and wonder through pieces from Buccellati’s Furry Animals, Nature, and Marina (sea) collections. Studio Mary Lennox, a botanical design firm, will enhance the experience with lush natural scenery interwoven with digital elements, taking visitors into a dreamlike atmosphere.
“Through the presentation of our decorative collections, interpreted by some of the most influential creative voices in contemporary design, we affirm the timeless relevance of Buccellati creations, pushing the boundaries of our artistry in innovative and unexpected ways,” Buccellati CEO Nicolas Luchsinger said in a statement. “This project marks the evolution of our longstanding collaboration with Balich Wonder Studio and the beginning of a new and promising partnership with Studio Mary Lennox, both founded on a shared vision and creative synergy.”
