THEMES AND INSPIRATIONS

JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM

A flight beyond the limits of the imagination leads Fornasetti to an enchanted, hypnotic Jerusalem. Multiple points of view overlap, with different architectural styles chasing each other in a continuous pattern. The precise black line interprets a boundless imagination, creating an intriguing texture. The first dreamlike journey took place on the Gerusalemme wallpaper designed for Casa Fornasetti at the end of the 1940s, and was later extended to trays, magazine racks, lamps and the iconic Fornasetti curved cabinet.

The imaginary, dreamy vision of Jerusalem is the inspiration for a flawless graphic exercise, where Fornasetti style supports creative flair.

Like all Fornasetti accessories, the Gerusalemme series is decorated at the Milan Atelier in the original artisan tradition.
