Discover The Ladies’ Room: a collaborative project founded by Ilaria Bianchi, Agustina Bottoni, Astrid Luglio and Sara Ricciardi. The collective explores the world of contemporary design by creating unique works of art and sensorial experiences with an unmistakable feminine twist.
Founded in Milan in 2016, The Ladies’ Room collective celebrates the spirit of collaboration between women through a synergic experience which delves into feminine iconography, Italian mythology and sensorial design. Ilaria Bianchi, Agustina Bottoni, Astrid Luglio and Sara Ricciardi have worked together on several projects, drawing scenarios as contemplative as they are tangible. Their exhibitions are symbolic voyages into Italian craft materials and techniques.
The Ladies’ Room collective takes its first step into the world of design at Salone del Mobile 2017 in Milan with the Fenoména exhibition: a sensorial installation involving all five senses, drawing from the philosophical concept of Phenomenalism - the theory by which physical objects do not exist as things in themselves but only as a perceptual phenomenon situated in time and space. The deep attention to sensorial design is a leitmotiv in the Ladies's Room production, also seen in the multisensory and intimate feel of their In Itinere exhibition: a site-specific project that develops in four symbolic stages with the aim to bring back ancestral images to one's memory and senses.
