Made in collaboration with Italian cultural collective Terraforma, the intimate house is made for “deep listening and quiet contemplation, the place the soundscapes curated by Terraforma and particularly crafted by sound designer Giorgio Di Salvo foster a delicate but profound reference to the world,” based on the model.
Architect Franceso Lupia designed the house with three principal parts in thoughts: “a bespoke sound system, a handcrafted multifunctional listening console impressed by conventional cabinet-making, and modular seating with velvet cushions.” All three parts are sheathed in intricately veneered woods, with surfaces that intend to evoke the identical sentiment as an “avant-garde” listening salon.
Chopping the ribbon on the listening room, Valentino and Terraforma are internet hosting a 10-hour reside program that may characteristic a number of 45-minute listening classes with artists together with Laraaji, Lea Bertucci, Laurel Halo, Lizzi Bougatsos, Chuquimamani-Condori, Kevin Beasley, Veronica Vasicka, and Bodily Remedy.
