The world of decorative art was enriched in May 2025 with a new masterpiece from DECO LINE – the EDEN gypsum bas-relief. This is not just a decorative element; it is a window into the fascinating world of mythology, where flora and fauna intertwine in an exquisite dance, frozen in a noble gypsum bas-relief. EDEN is a gypsum bas-relief, as an invitation to create a unique space filled with harmony and inspiration. If you visited the spring Exhibition MosBuild-2025, then you probably didn't pass by the DECO LINE stand, where our company presented a sample of the EDEN gypsum bas-relief for the first time. We then received numerous enthusiastic reviews from designers interested in this bas-relief, who examined its details with genuine interest.

Nube was founded in 1958 in the hard-working Brianza region. Counting the years is a source of pride for a company that has focused on know-how right from its origins. And for the second (and today also the third) generation of the Nicoli family, there’s a tacit approach to the passing of time: to progress while preserving the merits of tried-and-tested experience. Siblings Simona and Corrado, who took over from their father, Antonio, the founder of Nube, have instilled in the design what had already become a respected industrial manufacturing story. In 2020, Stefano, the grandson, entered the company, marking a further step in the brand's evolution. Reinforcing the company’s close ties with the territory, synonymous with Made in Italy quality, they have moved further forward the milestones which Nube had already achieved since the 1970s, marked by an innate organisational and entrepreneurial capacity, progressively expanding towards the USA, Europe and Far East markets. All the goals achieved over the decades with upholstered furniture collections are a testament to a production that is precise in its manufacturing process and attentive to interpreting tastes in advance, thanks also to collaborations with Carlo Colombo, Marco Corti, Ferdinando Buzzi, and others who have left their mark.

Italian design since 1984 Baleri Italia was founded on March 8, 1984, by Enrico Baleri and Marilisa Decimo. In the years of sobriety and form-function rigour, Baleri Italia became the highest expression of a specific idea of design, pragmatic yet utopian, in pursuit of the authentic, non-obsolescent, inconspicuous, coherent, and international object. Its design philosophy was, and remains, aimed at creating distinctive and functional designs, maintaining a constant commitment to expressive research combined with careful technical product development. This approach has enabled the company to pioneer technological experimentation and material innovation, while also recognizing and supporting emerging talents in design. First and foremost, Philippe Starck, whose collaboration marked the beginning of a path full of successes and innovations. Over time, Starck has been joined by masters such as Hannes Wettstein, Angelo Mangiarotti, and Alessandro Mendini, authors of products that have become authentic icons, such as Starck's Francesca Spanish chair and President M table, the Juliette and Caprichair seats, and the Bill sofa by Wettstein, the T-Table by Mangiarotti. The brand has also received many awards for its

Eclectic style allows for the design of unique, highly expressive interiors. Read the article to learn how to achieve this with Karman lighting. This highly sophisticated design approach requires an in-depth understanding of different stylistic codes and how to combine them harmoniously.

Without this knowledge, there’s a real risk of creating disjointed compositions, compromising the coherence of the overall design, generating sensory overload, and, all too often, veering into kitsch. In this type of design, which leans towards storytelling, lighting plays a key role in shaping a distinctive and believable narrative.

That’s where Karman lighting comes in. With its unconventional aesthetic, each lamp becomes the perfect voice in what we might call a polyphonic style composition.

In this article, we’ll explore the meaning of eclectic style and offer advice and inspiration on when and how to incorporate it into projects.

• What does eclectic style mean?
• When to furnish your home with an artistic lamp?
• Why opt for eclectic lighting?
• Some ideas for indoor lighting

What does eclectic style mean? To explain what eclectic style means in interior design, it's helpful to take a step back and look at its inspirations. Indeed, the meaning of eclectic style can be found in the term "eclecticism," which is derived from the Greek word “ ἐκλέγειν ” (eklegein), which means "to choose" or "to select. " In philosophy, an eclectic person does not adhere to a single school of thought but draws from multiple doctrines to construct their own vision. In contemporary design, eclecticism is a cross-style approach that integrates elements from different styles. When applied to lighting, eclectic lighting integrates luminous elements drawn from a plurality of design languages. An emblematic example of this is the Beautiful Mess suspension lamp. Designer Marcantonio created the unusual, deconstructed silhouette precisely by mixing shapes, materials, and styles that, while all belonging to the semantic field of lighting, refer to diverse times and places. The meaning When to furnish your home with an artistic lamp? Carefully selecting one or more artistic lamps can achieve an eclectic style in an interior lighting design project. The mention of artistic lamps evokes a dimension where light becomes a narrative protagonist, a stage presence that strongly defines the space. An artistic lamp surprises, subverts expectations, and moves beyond a purely utilitarian view of lighting to draw the eye even when turned off. For example, it can be the differentiating

A fireplace in a house is not just a source of heat. It is one of the main interior details that can make the space cozy and stylish. How do you make a panel that will become a single art object with a fireplace as a focal point in the room? We will analyze in detail how to implement this task using a specific example, how to make a panel or bas-relief above the fireplace the dominant interior feature, and discuss the design methods and accents that can emphasize the individuality and style of the design project. Interior panels in a modern apartment An interior panel (bas-relief) is not just a work of art. It transforms the space and creates the right mood. A correctly selected interior panel can make any room both stylish and harmonious. Today, many successful designers know how to make a panel a connecting element of decor that forms the overall concept of the interior. At the end of 2024, DECO LINE created an interior panel for decorating a fireplace in a private apartment in a In the center of the space there is a living-dining room with an area of 55.0 m². According to the designers' idea, the fireplace is decorated with a plaster interior panel. The source of inspiration before ordering the panel was the surroundings of the house - authentic architecture, a view from the window onto squares and boulevards. Therefore, natural motifs are repeated in the decor of the interior panel framing the fireplace. The search for forms led the authors to the image of mountain
