The experimental, playful material contrasts that define Bugatti’s work are of great interest to both Yves Salomon Éditions and Dimorestudio. Thus, the collaboration is rife with juxtapositions of metal and leatherware - ranging from leather to shearling and recycled fur. Adhering to the ornamentalist aesthetic cherished by Bugatti, Dimorestudio ideates suspension systems and trimmings in mink. But the main focus stays on intarsia, the artisanal technique that assembles contrasting fur samples to form decorative motifs akin to wood inlay, only in lamb leather, mink and alpaca.

Five different kinds of seats are presented in Milan this April, each with its own unique kaleidoscopic design, evoking both Art déco, 1950s futurism and 1970s glam through a postmodern lens. These whimsical creations are in conversation with Bugatti’s own historic pieces in a layout staged by Dimorestudio’s interior designer duo. To complete Yves Salomon Édition’s second collection, a series of new design proposals will also be unveiled next October in Paris.
