The living room is furnished with designer creations, among which, the Warren Platner seats, the coffee table by Vicenzo de Cotiis, and the chandelier by Studio Drift.

In the interior we also spot a famous moment from the Dior History. This iconic photo features the iconic 'Aventure' two-piece design from the 1948 Haute Couture collection, designed by the man who knew so well how to define the height of femininity, Christian Dior himself.

The dining room gains personality with Mirror DC 1801 from Vincenzo de Cotiis and the classics dining chairs from Pierre Jeanneret.

The art de la table manifests a celebration of the French art de vivre. The table is set with gorgeous Dior Maison tableware. The luxurious Baccarat crystal glasses and candle holders, complete the image, whereas the pink flower centerpieces compliment the setting in the most wonderful way.
