BVLGARI New York Store, through the eyes of Peter Marino

Found in one of Manhattan’s most central locations, on the corner between 5th Avenue and 57th Street, the new store occupies 308 square meters of the outer façade of the Crown Building, making it a true landmark of New York. Symbolically relocated from the Eternal City to New York, the Condotti door represents the starting point of a journey into the essence of the Bulgari way of life. A hand-crafted replica of the lantern hanging over the entrance of the Roman flagship store complements this reproduction. The interplay between old and new marks the special affinity between Peter Marino and Bulgari, and defines the bold character of this store: it is a sapient blend of ancient and contemporary, a play of ambiguities between structural elements and decoration, a true journey back into the brand’s 130-year-long history. Like during a walk through the sun-kissed city of Rome, a bright central promenade welcomes the visitor. With the star-patterned white Lasa marble mosaic on the floor, two oval shaped counters in light galvanized iron - inspired by the renowned Italian architect Carlo Scarpa – and two chandeliers by Italian architect Gio Ponti, this environment is dominated by light.
