We are fans of this avant-garde, Dubai-based marble brand that specialises in creating unique collections and special editions in collaboration with emerging international designers. By blending research, tradition, and avant-garde, Fioravante brings to life designs that reflect the originality and contemporary vision of each designer. The brand goes beyond borders, spreading the timeless value of Italian craftsmanship worldwide. Fioravante’s brand identity plays a key role in its narrative, transporting viewers into a mystical realm called “Altrove”—an idyllic, dreamlike world where imagination knows no limits. Through surreal content and visual campaigns, Fioravante creates a universe of serenity, peace, and harmony, turning the ideas of their designers into reality. Their debut collection, “VIA” by Shay Levi, exemplifies the brand’s ethos by balancing dualities like fragility and strength, marble and glass, pushing the boundaries of design to reveal the seamless beauty of nature. At the fair, the brand will present their first collection and showcase their mystical brand identity. The booth will be set in a dreamy environment characterised by natural elements., offering an oasis of peace in the midst of the busy environment. You can follow their brand journey here.
