A retrospective look back at Spotti’s seasonal installations by Studiopepe
Spotti first enlisted Studiopepe in 2009 because of its unconventionally Milanese approach to interiors. Since then, their in-store seasonal changeovers have grown in scope, and the studio now has total creative control of Spotti's showroom design, window and product installations. Here, we take a look back on the fruits of their collaboration, kicking off with a showcase Raf Simons' collaboration with Kvadrat (pictured) in April earlier this year.
