Dolce&Gabbana and SMEG team up again for Sicily is my Love, a unique expression of Made in Italy creativity. This time, the subject of their collaboration is SMEG’s exclusive series of small appliances.
The inimitable Dolce&Gabbana style features on all models of this designer collection. Golden lemons and other citrus fruits blossomed on the cases of toasters, citrus juicers, espresso coffee makers, kettles, blenders, planetary mixers and auger juice extractors, opuntia blossoms blossomed and bright cherry blossoms blossomed.
All elements of Sicilian fine art framed in triangular patterns called crocchi. The décor of the appliances also features unobtrusive floral motifs, inspired by the coast and landscapes of Southern Italy, and fantastic landscapes of Etna surrounded by interesting ornaments, in which you can see the ruins of the Greek temple of Castor and Pollux in the Valley of the Temples, the symbol of Trinacria and images of cartocchia “Sicilian tubes of dough” – transl. that look like acanthus leaves.
All aesthetic icons are inextricably linked in particular to Sicily, the spiritual home of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana as well as to Italy in general. The kitchen, for which SMEG products are destined to excel, will always be one of the country’s most striking cultural expressions. The food that is typical of Southern Italy and ancient traditional dishes are sources you cannot help but fall back in love with. The precious kitchen appliances in the new collection are the result of many years of SMEG’s creative expertise in the design of home appliances.
The exclusive Sicily is my Love series from Dolce&Gabbana and SMEG premiered on the occasion of the Salone del Mobile and took place on 4 April 2017 at the Metropol Hotel Viale Piave, 24 in Milan
