The Azul House by
Paola Navone
for Turri
The Italian way to beauty
Blue has no dimensions;
it is beyond dimensions,
whereas the other colours
are not… All colours
arouse specific associative
ideas, psychologically
material or tangible,
while blue suggests at
most the sea and sky,
and they, after all, are
in actual, visible nature
what is most abstract.” -
Yves Klein
y borrowing from the world of the
art of Yves Klein, who created the
Bmost perfect expression of blue,
Turri introduces the Azul House, designed
by Paola Navone - OTTO Studio.
In this new capsule collection,
presented during the Salone del Mobile
2022, Turri’s Made in Italy ethos is flanked
by the contemporary look of a designer
with an unmistakable style.
OTTO Studio’s manufacturing skill
features meticulous attention to detail,
which in certain respects, approaches
Italian high fashion, elevating the
eclecticism of Paola Navone, who has
reworked the tradition of the Turri
brand by reconfiguring proportions and
dimensions, and by experimenting with
materials and finishes.
The intense and refined lapis lazuli blue
that colours the house of Paola Navone
- OTTO Studio, appears throughout the
entire collection, which is of impeccable
quality thanks to the special craftsmanship
of Turri.
