Eligo Studio Reimagines the Hearth at Rossella Colombari for Milan Design Week 2026
During Milan Design Week 2026, from April 14 to 24, Galleria Rossella Colombari presents "Focolare Domestico" by Eligo Studio. The exhibition reinterprets the ancient ritual of gathering around fire through a poetic and material lens, blending Ligurian memory with author design. The centerpiece is the Camino Arenzano, a fireplace developed from a decade-long study along the Ligurian coast. It pays homage to design masters such as Vico Magistretti, Ettore Spalletti, Alvar Aalto, Charlotte Posenenske, and Angelo Mangiarotti. The studio is also involved in restoring Casa Arosio by Magistretti, Villa Valle by Marco Zanuso, and Villa De Negri by Ignazio Gardella. The fireplace features a satin metal structure reminiscent of Anish Kapoor's work and uses three circular bio-ethanol burners for sustainable, smokeless fire. The project is part of Eligo Studio's broader REINVENTING THE CLASSICS initiative.
