Overview
- Giorgetti contributed reinterpreted ‘Summa’ poufs to Es Devlin’s installation titled A Feast of Light in the Palladian Refectory at the Fondazione Giorgio Cini during Homo Faber 2026.
- The company removed colour from the pieces by using two fabrics and one leather all in the same shade of white so surface texture and light reveal nuance rather than chromatic contrast.
- Giorgetti says the collaboration began through talks with the Michelangelo Foundation shortly before summer and developed quickly into an integrated placement rather than a standard product display.
- Creative director Giancarlo Bosio describes Summa as geometrical and technically complex and says the white treatment lets the pouf step away from objecthood to shape how visitors move through and feel the space.
- Giorgetti frames the presentation as the start of a broader strategy to place its craft and design language in cultural contexts where art, architecture and design meet.
