REAL PEOPLE ARE THE FOCUS OF THE STORY

The desire to talk about light by starting with those who experience inside their most personal space: the home

VITE is a project that that unfolds in a narrative of images, videos and words and narrates the emotion and atmosphere that a Foscarini lamp can bring to a real home, inhabited by real people. Homes and lives illuminated by light, glimpses into very personal settings, also imperfect precisely because they are real, in which our lamps would enter and become part of. Lamps that are made to shed light, but above all to be lifelong companions.

DISCOVER THE LIVES

Light – In the homes of others

An original way to talk about lamps that have become icons of Made in Italy. In this dimension, the home is not a set but a place to find shelter, relaxation, to spend time with loved ones. Foscarini lamps are part of a forthright context, a true dwelling, offering glimpses of everyday life and intimacy. The viewer feels like part of the tableau, even if the homes are not our homes.

Two books, three continents, thirteen cities, twenty-five homes.

Two photographic books that explore light, people, and life stories. The result of a journey, begun in 2019, which led us to a variety of locations and latitudes, revealing a different light and, alongside it, diverse cultures of living.

A new perspective: real
homes, real lives.

«We met some truly special people, who very patiently opened their spaces to us, where Foscarini enters on tiptoe. In this project, what changes is the vantage point: the choice of the angle from which to shoot the scene, which as Antonioni taught us is a moral choice, which speaks of where you stand, how you see the world. In this project, the product is no longer the central focus, because people are at the centre. A change of perspective, a statement of principle. People make the choices, and we want to be part of their emotional panorama, their domestic panorama».

«Every time the door of one of these lives I have portrayed was opened, over these months, I searched for a Sunday, 40 years ago, for the wonder of that particular light I experienced when I was 6 years old, in a totally new house, with the scent of fresh paint to welcome us, and the sounds arriving from upstairs. It was the light I imagined crossing the life of the people who lived up there».
