Rubelli has been synonymous with excellence in the world of textile furnishings for over 130 years. A company that was founded in Venice and immediately distinguished itself by producing fine fabrics of the highest quality, such as damasks, brocatellas and velvets. Throughout its long history, Rubelli has been able to blend tradition with innovation, collaborating with internationally renowned designers and proposing collections capable of reinterpreting fabric not only as a material, but as a true work of art.
The Gardens and Parade collections, which we will discuss in this article, perfectly embody this dualism between Rubelli’s historical richness and contemporary vision, bringing a novel combination of aesthetics and functionality to home and public spaces.
Rubelli: a more than secular reality
Founded in Venice in 1889, Rubelli is a family business now in its fifth generation, which has been able to grow while holding firm to its original values. The brand’s artisanal heritage is reflected not only in its fabrics, but also in its dedication to sustainability and quality. Its collections, designed for both the residential and contract sectors, are a perfect blend of technical innovation and timeless beauty.
One of Rubelli’s hallmarks is its ability to collaborate with top designers and artists, creating exclusive capsule collections that expand the boundaries of interior design. From the pioneering work of Gio Ponti, who designed velvets exhibited at the Venice Biennale in 1930, to more recent collaborations with Paola Navone, Luca Nichetto, Peter Marino, and Luke Edward Hall, Rubelli has always been able to grasp new trends without ever losing sight of its signature elegance and tradition.
In addition to the production of fine fabrics, the company has established prestigious collaborations in the world of fashion and design. Rubelli’s collections have furnished theaters, museums and luxury residences all over the world, from the La Fenice Theater in Venice to the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow and the halls of the Royal Palace in Milan.
Rubelli’s fabric collections
Gardens: Formafantasma’s homage to nature
The Gardens collection, created by design studio Formafantasma, is a fascinating tribute to biodiversity and the beauty of nature. Like a well-tended garden, each fabric represents a unique element that, combined with the others, creates a harmonious visual ecosystem. The collection is distinguished by the clever use of bright and brilliant colors: melons, pistachios, lemons and orchids are the chromatic protagonists that give spaces a sense of freshness and vitality.
Gardens fabrics transform the environment into a lush garden. Designed to meet the needs of both indoor and outdoor spaces, the collection has a dual soul; for interiors, figurative patterns, inspired by flowers and plants, prevail; for outdoors, on the other hand, abstract and geometric patterns are favored, with elegant and discreet tones .
Parade: the creative game of Luke Edward Hall
The Parade collection by Luke Edward Hall is a journey into classical imagery, but with a touch of modernity and fantasy. Inspired by ancient Greece, Parade features a “parade” of mythological characters, gods, goddesses, and artists, moving through a landscape of classical columns, friezes, and symbols. The great novelty of this collection lies in the possibility of customizing the wall coverings, freely combining the various subjects to create a unique and original space.
This creative and playful approach allows each wall to be transformed into a true work of art, where imagination and design meet in a harmonious and striking composition.
