On December 8th, Paola Lenti took part in an event organized by L’Ambiente, its exclusive partner in Cortina, in conjunction with the 13th edition of Cortina Fashion Week. This four-day rendezvous unfolds through the streets of the renowned Dolomite town, blending the public and private, the mundane and cultural, to mark the opening of the winter season.
The event at L’Ambiente featured an open and informal discussion inspired by carefully chosen keywords. These words shed light on distinct corporate philosophies, each contributing to personal and evocative interpretations of space, colour, and materials.
Architect Kicco Bestetti represented Paola Lenti and engaged in a dialogue with Massimo Castagna, the art director of Henge – a company that, like Paola Lenti, has made material research a defining characteristic, and Silvia Camerotto, interior designer and founder of Slow Design 44. Moderating the conversation was Andrea Bettini, a partner at the Perissinotto & Bettini Associati architecture studio, a true “business narrator” with a passion for company and people storytelling.
While the soft snow blanketed Cortina, the conversation revolved around the proposed keywords: balance, matter, colour, soul, and beauty – words that have always played a fundamental role in Paola Lenti’s vocabulary and philosophy. They also explored wellbeing, emphasizing the importance of “feeling good” in one’s living space.
The evening concluded with an aperitif in the outdoor area of the showroom, adorned with Paola Lenti’s most representative products. The space was enveloped in the magic of snow against the backdrop of the Ampezzo Dolomites, among the most beautiful and fascinating mountains in the world.
