La Cocina

by NATALIA CRIADO

Natalia Criado will showcase her most notable project gems at home at "La Cocina," Villa Borsani kitchen.
The kitchen serves as the perfect backdrop for her pieces, symbolizing the heart of her artistic journey. This collection transforms everyday objects into works of art, blending sculptural mastery with sensory allure. Each piece in 'Joyas en Casa' seamlessly transitions between functionality and decoration,

This extraordinary ensemble of artifacts redefines the very concept of everyday objects, engraving them with a resplendent fusion of sculptural mastery and sensory allure. From salt and pepper containers to cutlery, and captivating floral and fruit vases.

Moreover, Natalia strives to infuse her objects with a sense of time, allowing them to tell a story and possess a soul. Each piece embodies the hours and expertise invested in its creation, and are meant to offer users the gift of time. When interacting with her objects, one engages in a ritual, presented with an opportunity to slow down and savor the moment. Her aim is to create objects that not only endure over time due to their materiality but also possess a timeless aesthetic that transcends trends.

Natalia, originally from Colombia but living in Milan, has leveraged her diverse background in industrial design and cultural experiences to establish a successful brand that encompasses tableware, and kitchen accessories. Her designs reflect a fusion of influences from Colombia, where she was born, and Italy, where she further honed her skills. Collaborating closely with expert artisans from both countries, Natalia skillfully combines contemporary design with traditional craftsmanship in her creations. In 2019, she returned to Milan to set up her own studio and launch the "Joyas en Casa" project.
