Cecilia De Fano Shop | Matteo Fantoni

The new multi-brand luxury store "Cecilia de Fano" has been opened in Bari. Large spaces, elegant details and quality materials are the strong expressions of this project. Matteo Fantoni Studio, using soft and essential flows, has shaped the spaces to create an art gallery effect that houses the collections of major international fashion names (Dior, YSL, Lanvin, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana etc.). The new 400 m2 area amplifies the historic selling space located in Via A. da Bari and in the next phase it is expected that a single store of 900 m2 will be created. Consisting of three levels connected by a delicate winding elegant staircase made of glass and steel, with large tall windows on the ground floor which are defined by Trani stone lined pillars, the shop is a large exhibition space with a clear impact on the surrounding urban context. The Studio has dedicated significant attention to the lighting design, both to reduce consumption and to enhance the depth of the design. The light sculpts the space, highlights the verticality, split levels and depth, as well as enhancing the quality of the products on display. Trani stone, extra clear glass, brushed stainless steel, 10 mm waxed sheet iron, and brush lacquered surfaces combine wonderfully to render the design perfect for the sale and the display of the collections.
