Byzantine art inspires designers to create spectacular, memorable things. Mosaics of the first centuries of Christianity that adorn religious buildings in Italy, for example, baptistries and basilicas in the early Christian centers of Ravenna and Bari, serve as a source of new ideas. Mosaic artists rely on historical patterns and reproduce them with jeweler's precision.

Look, for example, at the work of the masters of FRIUL MOSAIC, adorning the dome of the church in Udine. Furniture makers are based on a combination of colors and lush decor, as is the case with the PATAVIUMART dressers. Byzantine motifs are in demand among fashion designers creating collections for interior brands. Our collection includes refrigerators painted for medieval frescoes based on sketches by the duet Dolce and Gabbana, and a collection of stylized wallpapers by Christian Lacroix.
