Spaces & Materials

This section of HART is dedicated to the spaces and materials that shape our interiors.
It explores the main territories of contemporary decoration through the places we inhabit and the materials that give them form, texture and character.

Exceptional Spaces & Materials

At HART, decoration is never approached as a simple arrangement of objects.
It is a way of inhabiting space, of working with use, materiality, volumes and light.

Kitchens, bathrooms, children’s spaces, interiors designed for pets, as well as fabrics, wallpapers, rugs, furniture and lighting, each theme explored here is an entry point to understanding how an interior is conceived, built and experienced.

Materials play a central role.
They speak of touch, durability, comfort, technical performance and refinement. They interact with spaces, sometimes constrain them, often elevate them. It is within this relationship between function and sensitivity that the most compelling interiors take shape.

This section offers a transversal and demanding reading of high-end interior design, attentive to contemporary uses as well as to craftsmanship, innovation and heritage.

What you will find in this section

  • Spaces
    Kitchens, bathrooms, children’s interiors and spaces dedicated to pets, environments designed to be lived in, where function meets aesthetics and attention to detail.
  • Materials & surfaces
    Upholstery fabrics, wall textiles, wallpapers, rugs and decorative surfaces, explored through their properties, uses and their ability to structure an atmosphere.
  • Elements of composition
    Furniture and lighting considered as a visual language, capable of defining a space, setting its rhythm and asserting its identity.

Each article, guide and selection is conceived as a lasting resource, intended for both professionals and design enthusiasts.
