Ec8 - Frances Table Lamp

The iconic Villa Necchi has given so much more than just a name to the duo formed by Charlotte Albert and Alexis Lamesta. They share the meticulous attention to detail cherished by architect Piero Portaluppi, channeling it into projects imbued with strong identities, which become the theater of their pronounced taste for the anachronism of styles. Rather than a simple decor, the space becomes an attitude, an interior of character with multiple influences drawn from the past. Their chromatic palette, characterized by the frequent use of lacquer, serves as a foundational element flowing seamlessly throughout their interiors, whether it’s embracing burgundy tones or deep greens, often paired with unexpected contrasts. For instance, they seamlessly blend stainless steel with elements reminiscent of the 1930s and 1940s, merging the code of the Art Deco movement with modernist principles. The resulting projects boast captivating and powerful scenography, seamlessly transitioning between different design universes, enriched by cinematic and stylistic references. Motivated by a desire to infuse spaces with both warmth and comfort, the duo meticulously selects materials that harmonize with the bespoke furniture they often design. Striving for a harmonious balance between aesthetics and functionality, Necchi Architecture crafts a style where technical precision and thoughtful assembly take precedence, each detail echoing the rich history of the space and its structure.
