The 25-year Collaboration between Paola Lenti and Francesco Rota

After Austria, Australia, Spain, and Texas, it is now California’s turn to bring together architects, interior designers, and the best local specialized press to celebrate the 25-year collaboration between Paola Lenti and Francesco Rota.

 

The event took place on Thursday, March 7th in Los Angeles, the sprawling American city famous worldwide for its endless beaches, perpetual sunshine, and multiethnic districts that have become symbols of the film industry, alongside Beverly Hills and Hollywood Boulevard with its Walk of Fame. And not only that. Los Angeles is in fact home to significant museums and regularly hosts cultural events. Paola Lenti Los Angeles, with its three large windows overlooking Melrose Avenue, welcomed the Milanese designer and Anna Lenti, CEO of the company, to the recently refreshed showroom.

 

Established in 2020 in partnership with Robina Benson Design House, Paola Lenti Los Angeles offers a surprising journey through environments distinguished by bright and vibrant colours, reflecting the youthful and sunny character of the city. The energy of its colours, from the lush green of vegetation to the deep blue of the ocean, is echoed particularly in the luminous chromatic choices that define the outdoor area. Meanwhile, in the spaces showcasing indoor collections, these colours transition into soft shades of sand and burnt earth, creating a more subdued and refined atmosphere.

 

The discussion was introduced and moderated by interior designer Adam Hunter – a prominent figure in Los Angeles and across the country, known for his eclectic personality and for infusing his experience in the entertainment industry into an original and dramatic style. He traced the 25 years of research, discoveries, and innovations that have brought to life a wide array of unmistakable iconic products with a cosmopolitan flair. Among these is the Linea chaise longue, which took center stage at the event in its most recent and exclusive iteration in printed felt, an original creation by Paola Lenti dating back to the 1990s. This limited edition was specially presented for this significant milestone.
