Official launch of the Marsotto LAB collection
21.10–23.12.2022
SPBH Space, Milan

Know-how: soft goods / accessories, Tableware, Furniture

From 21 October to 23 December 2022, ECAL and more specifically the students of the Master of Advanced Studies in Design for Luxury and Craftsmanship will unveil the result of their latest collaboration with the Italian brand Marsotto LAB and officially launch the collection of the same name, composed of a selection of accessories created between 2018 and today through collaborations with international designers.

Following the growing success of Marsotto Edizioni, the Italian marble company now presents Marsotto LAB, a new platform geared towards the production of accessories imagined by young designers and students from art and design schools.

Since the creation of this platform, the family company has called on ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne and more specifically on the students of the Masters of Advanced Studies in Design for Luxury and Craftsmanship to work on a collection of everyday objects. These various collaborations, led successively by Spanish designer Jaime Hayon, French designer Pierre Charpin, and Slovakian designer Tomáš Král, have resulted in the production of clocks and other home accessories with shapes that are as elegant as they are sculptural.

Although several pieces have already been exhibited around the world, the aim of this exhibition is to showcase the result of the latest collaboration with ECAL and to officially launch the Marsotto LAB collection by presenting a selection of accessories that are now available for sale.

Based on a scenographic concept imagined by Swiss designer Charlotte Therre, these objects come to life, displayed on marble furniture produced by the family company.
