Eden Paradiso Welcomes Restraint in Favor of Simplicity

Joris Poggioli’s Eden Paradiso collection imagines the interior of a Venetian home inhabited by a stylish, cultivated male around the age of 60 who surrounds himself with minimal designs that are charged with history, stories, and memories.

The twelve piece collection is made up of monolith tables, a bubble sofa, dial material lights, a screen, a mirror, and a tall ceramic ashtray. Eden Paradiso uses restraint in favor of simplistic ornamentation, instead using materials to set the tone. Glass, marble, onyx, rosewood, and lacquer punctuate this collection that leans toward sculptural, architectural, and timeless.
