It was back in 2013 when we read about the Gianni Veneziano's Daysign exhibition that took place at the Triennale di Milano. It was the way how the organisers conceived this exhibition as well as the powerful sketches of the designer that made us search about him and his team and since then we were great followers of the studio's work. Milano Design Week 2015 is the triggering event to write about the Veneziano+Team projects implemented within this week full of design and innovation.

Gianni Veneziano and Luciana Di Virgilio of Veneziano+Team design studio created the new illumination system "StarNet" for Vistosi and the Limited Edition "Chiari di Lunae" for Vistosi and Morellato. Both projects will be presented at Euroluce, the biennial exhibition within Milan Salone del Mobile devoted to excellence in the world of lighting, at Vistosi stand (Hall 11 Stand D 23).

StarNet is considered as an open lighting system. Handcrafted cylinders in purest crystal of Vistosi, combined in various ways and versions, create a luminous texture which captures the eye and lights up the ambient through a led source. The designers duo said about their new project "We imagined a journey that begins with the idea of nomadism and where creativity refuses to root itself in a fixed identity. An evolutionary journey towards the future which reaches the stars to meet a “nova”. This is how StarNet was born".

"Chiari di Lunae", part of the StarNet collection, is not just the alliance of two historical companies - Vistosi and Morellato - is the creation of the first jewel lamp in a limited edition reflecting original artisan and modern quality. With certain reference to the purity of Murano glass as "Chiari" means in Italian "clear" one we can say, that is a state-of-art product that combines tradition, elegance and extreme creativity and as Matteo Moretti, CEO of Vetreria Vistosi declares "is a light object, beautiful to observe and experience each day where the interplay between light, glass, chains of jewels and pendants creates a luminous and precious alliance".

At the Riva1920 stand (Hall 6 Stand A 23 B 20) you can see the stool "One Love" by Veneziano+Team studio. We actually came across this piece of furniture when the studio uploaded an image on the Valentine's day in their Facebook account. The heart-shaped stool is made of cedar wood. The symbolic and ancestral shape has already characterized the previous Gianni Veneziano's projects in production, between art and design, who has thus made it the subject of experimentation over the years. This year the studio gives a more minimalistic and contemporary version of this well-known silhouette for Riva1920.
