Gallery Casa Mollino

The entrance of the flat: floral patterns and details inspired by the Orient, like the sliding doors in Japanese style. Photo: Adam Bartos.

The fireplace. Designed by Mollino himself, framed by a mirror which has become matte over time. On the background wall, the pictures of a peaceful nature create the illusion of a limitless room. Photo: Adam Bartos.

Tulip chairs by Saarinen alongside large shells and an oriental lamp in rice paper. The curtains are throughout the flat and modify the spaces.

"Psyché" in Greek means soul , breath of life and also butterfly. Here, the two meanings combine: the butterfly is the soul which flies off at the end of the ultimate Day.
