Kiki Goti introduces a look at the Selene exhibition which made its debut at Alcova as a part of Milan Design Week this year. It highlights how design can shift perceptions of a usually underrepresented space. Goti explains, "I’m drawn to a more contemplative interpretation – one that eschews outward ostentation in favor of an inward exploration. In my vision, the foyer becomes a sanctum for introspection, guiding occupants on a transformative journey of self-discovery."
The exhibition is led by four pieces including the Moon Bench, the Celestial Table Lamp, the Nestled Chair, and the Nuphar Mirror. It captures how elements of the home can be vessels to create a tranquil space for introspection. The exhibition is named after Greek Mythology's moon goddess and governess of transformation.
