For the WOW!HOUSE 2024 at Chelsea Design Harbour, we collaborated with designer Andrea Benedettini to create an extraordinary library space inspired by the elegance and fluidity of ballet, particularly Swan Lake. The design concept, deeply personal to Andrea as a trained ballet designer, brings the romance and movement of ballet into the room through carefully curated elements.
At the center of this vision is Alma’s Oxford flooring, which was selected to echo the tranquility and organic beauty of nature within an interior setting. This leather flooring seamlessly captures the essence of a lush forest floor, enhancing the sense of immersion and escapism that Andrea envisioned. The subtle texture and rich color of the leather add warmth and depth to the space, while also providing the resilience needed for a high-traffic area like the library.
Alma’s leather flooring not only complements the theme but also anchors the room, embodying the harmony between nature and design and transforming the library into a serene, inspired retreat.
