3 Fashion statement
Versace Home has launched the new Via Gesu collection, which takes its inspiration from the fashion house’s latest It-bag, the Palazzo. At the heart of the new Via Gesu collection are the Via Gesu sofa and armchair, which are characterised by a not-so-subtle V shape and topped with the brand’s trademark Medusa heads.

4 Grand designs
Also part of the new Via Gesu collection is a range of cushions featuring striking neoclassical imagery. We love the shimmery tones and grand designs on this cushion, which will add a touch of pomp to any space.

This bulky, multifaceted mirror from Flamant is guaranteed to make a statement, wherever you place it. However, you may be too busy admiring its sleek lines to pay much heed to your own reflection.
