Fabio Novembre Develops a Store for an Italian Furniture Brand
Kalin Ned — June 1, 2022 — Art & Design
Italian furniture brand Natuzzi sought the design vision of Fabio Novembre for a renovated concept store. The interior approach reflects the Puglian roots of the company. Puglia—also known as Apulia—is a region of Italy that occupies the southern peninsular section of the country. In this sense, Novembre was an appropriate choice for the project as the designer was born in the Puglian city of Lecce.
The interior of the Italian furniture brand's concept store mirrors the culture, colors, and traditions that are associated with this specific region. There is a central space that Natuzzi can use for meetings with prospective customers, as well as a site for activating its unique virtual 3D shopping experience.
The Puglia-informed interior concept will be launched during Milan Design Week.
