A minimalist private home and the Priesteregg Premium Eco Resort show Catellani & Smith lights in two different settings. Neutral interiors and an alpine landscape provide the backdrop for lighting that brings out materials and creates atmosphere.
Minimalism as a blank canvas
In the modern private home, the pared-back design becomes a blank canvas for the lamps. Neutral tones on walls, architectural elements, furniture and wall coverings give space to the materials, finishes and details of the selected light objects. The lighting makes its impression through its relationship with the restrained interior.
The photographs include an open blue circular form on a wall and a glowing sphere above a gallery. Beside the round dining table, the blue light object sits against a pale wall alongside dark chairs. Form and colour can be seen in the context of the room.
Priesteregg Premium Eco Resort in Leogang
The Priesteregg Premium Eco Resort in Leogang, in the Salzburg region, offers a different setting. The newsletter presents the resort, consisting of 15 chalets and exclusive villas, as a retreat in the mountain landscape. Its architecture and furnishings reflect a love of nature and attention to the wellbeing of guests.
Catellani & Smith lamps were selected for this setting. They complement the indoor and outdoor spaces and help create a relaxing atmosphere. The photographs bring the light objects together with timber, stone and views of the surrounding landscape.
Lighting indoors and outdoors
On the covered timber terrace, glowing spheres hang above the seating, with snow-covered mountains beyond. Inside, pendant lights sit above a dining table in front of large windows. Another photograph shows an armchair beside glazing overlooking greenery. These views reveal the lamps as part of each space where guests spend time.
Catellani and Smith in contract settings
The two projects show how the lamps work with architecture and furnishings. In the private home, neutral surfaces set the scene for the light objects; at the resort, interiors, outdoor spaces and landscape form a shared picture. The lighting supports the individual character of the spaces.
