Icone Silenziose

Paolo Castelli

Paolo Castelli presents the capsule collection “Designer Objects: A Tribute to Morandi” for Istituzione Bologna Musei. Furniture, complements, and objects engage in an open dialogue between art, history, and design. Icone Silenziose takes inspiration from Giorgio Morandi’s still lifes, transforming the simplicity and elegance of his compositions into decorative blown glass vases handcrafted by Murano master artisans. Each piece echoes the minimalist and harmonious lines characteristic of the artist, bestowing everyday objects like vases, bottles, and boxes with a refined and timeless aesthetic. The five models, available in delicate tones of Amber, Smoke, Blue, and Petrol, stand out for their subtle hues that, illuminated by light, create reflections and luminous geometries, adding elegance and warmth to the spaces they adorn.
