Colonna lands in New York. After its debut in Milan, the sculptural collection born from the collaboration between Gessi and David Rockwell was showcased in an exclusive event at Casa Gessi New York during NYCxDESIGN, powered by Dezeen. Gessi presents Beyond the Extraordinary on the occasion of NYCxDESIGN, New York City’s annual design festival that celebrates creativity in all its forms through citywide events spanning architecture, interior design, technology, and art. In this dynamic and inspiring context, Gessi offers an experiential journey that merges innovation and artisanal mastery, unveiled within the exclusive Casa Gessi New York. Located in a 19th-century neoclassical building in the heart of SoHo, Casa Gessi New York is much more than a traditional showroom: it is a multisensory environment spread across five levels, where every space is designed to express the brand’s essence through immersive atmospheres and cutting-edge design. Here, aesthetics blend seamlessly with functionality to offer an experience that stimulates the senses and reflects the personality of those who inhabit the space.Beyond the Extraordinary is a journey that celebrates Gessi’s vision, where experimentation and design culture come together to redefine the boundaries of design and introduce a new dimension of well-being. It is an experience born from the exploration of new languages, the use of innovative materials, and a fresh aesthetic. The journey culminates in the unveiling of Colonna, a sculptural creation born from a collaboration with renowned designer David Rockwell. Inspired by the architectural archetype of the classical column, Colonna reinterprets this iconic element through a contemporary lens. Crafted from fine materials such as travertine, crystal glass, and metal, it fuses strength and lightness, precision and sensuality transforming the bathroom into a true sanctuary of well-being.
