Giorgetti Showroom in Mumbai
This luxurious showroom designed for a traditional Italian furniture brand Giorgetti by Rajiv Saini and Associates is located in Mumbai, India.
Description by Rajiv Saini
The 112 year old Italian furniture brand Giorgetti recently opened its first showroom in Mumbai, designed by Rajiv Saini and Associates.
The 4,000 square feet showroom is located on the 10th and 11th floors of a new residential development.
A terrace on the 12th floor, which offers sweeping views of the city, displays a range of outdoor furniture and will function as a venue to host events to introduce new collections.
Traditionally Giorgetti furniture pieces have been associated with the highest degree of craftsmanship in leather and timber and we chose to juxtapose these against a very modern palette of materials like limed oak, resin floors and blackened metal.
The spine of blackened metal runs right through the centre of the space at both levels and totally encases the vertical movement through the steps.
The partition walls of the original apartments were done away with to offer an open plan space that gives the impression of meandering through a private home.
White lacquered screens zone off areas and translucent glazing cordons off a meeting room to entertain architects.
