The Shape of Wonder

Drawing inspiration from a house filled with memories, traces of time, and quiet beauty, the exhibition invites visitors into a dreamlike world. Here, contemporary and collectible design become vessels for imagination, poetry, and discovery.

In this setting, the past is not a fixed archive but a living source of inspiration, one that can be reinterpreted, transformed, and brought into dialogue with the present.
