Floating Ideas by Gabriel Scott

Canadian luxury handmade furniture and lighting brand Gabriel Scott celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2022 and to mark this special milestone, founder Scott Richler has commissioned six inspirational designers and architects to reimagine its best-selling and most iconic product, the Welles Chandelier. The reimagined pieces will be shown at a formal presentation called ‘Floating Ideas’ as part of 5VIE Design Week, during Salone del Mobile in June.

For the anniversary, six top international designers including Kelly Hoppen CBE, Michelle Gerson, David Rockwell, Alessandro Munge, Sybille de Margerie and Guan Lee, have revisited the Welles Chandelier and added their own interpretations to its design. Each piece is in keeping with Gabriel Scott’s core design principles: versatile aesthetic, customisable and timeless. To ensure differentiation between each studio’s design, Gabriel Scott provided a specific brief which offered advice on design direction as well as technical execution to ensure that each piece is a workable and buildable product.

All six pieces will be on display in the Spazio Big Gallery throughout Milan Design Week. Opening and event times are as per the above. Please get in touch if you have any questions.
