Cabinet area in the bedroom from the Oro (Besana) collection by design by Alessandro La Spada — part of a holistic concept of living space

If you try to unravel the ornament that decorates a walnut boiserie, you can see the characteristic ovals in the spirit of Art Deco, or you can see the letter “O”. Both the first and the second are true: the designer ciphered the word oro (“gold” in Italian) in ornaments. The designer does not carry the gold theme directly. He is not talking about gold himself — about new luxury, as he understands it.

In general, this style can be described as a reinterpreted art deco: the monumentality of forms, the splendor of finishes, geometric patterns — all these are signs of style. La Spada has developed even a floor tile for the collection — everything, right down to the desk and the lamp. By the way, on the side of the table you can “read” the gold part of the letter “O”.
