The Versace Home 2024 collection made its debut at Salone del Mobile, part of Milan Design Week, with an immersive exhibition held at Palazzo Versace, the original Milan residence and design Atelier located at Via Gesù 12, under the theme ‘Versace Home: If These Walls Could Talk’.
This latest furniture line revolves around Versace’s iconic design elements. Chairs and sofas with rounded shapes and luxurious dimensions, available in leather or chenille, prominently feature the Medusa ’95 and Greca motifs alongside the Barocco pattern. The Barocco theme extends to tableware from the Rosenthal meets Versace collection.
The standout piece of the collection is the Medusa ’95 Conversation Sofa, exemplifying Versace’s opulent style with its grand scale and inviting comfort.
The exhibition immersed guests in the legendary narratives of Versace’s Palazzo in Milan through an audio journey as they navigated the Versace Home display. Musical compositions intertwined with narrated snippets recounted iconic moments within the Palazzo’s walls, including the groundbreaking emergence of the Supermodel during the Versace Fall-Winter 1991 fashion show held in the Palazzo’s courtyard, and other stories highlighting the creative luminaries and collaborators who have graced Via Gesù 12 over the years.
