Just as Athena sprang from the head of Zeus completely grown and armed, Giampiero Tagliaferri has emerged on the international design scene as a full-fledged phenomenon-an instant superstar leading a team of 10 from his twin offices in Los Angeles and Milan. Barely two years since the launch of his namesake practice, the dashing Italian-born talent already boasts a roster of major architecture and interior design projects that would be the envy of any industry veteran: the renovation of a Venetian palazzo for a prominent art collector; an LA house for Brunello Cucinelli's daughter Carolina and her husband, Alessio Piastrelli; a remodel of a prominent Japanese-inspired house in Beverly Hills for jewelry designer Anita Ko; a series of cafés and restaurants for Sant Ambroeus; and other residential commissions in Paris, San Francisco, Beverly Hills, and Las Vegas. On the product front, the designer unveiled the first fruits of his newly minted creative alliance with the Italian furniture giant Minotti at the 2024 Salone del Mobile in Milan.

Elements of Style - Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry celebrate 10 years of artistic exploration at Hermès
Last March, Hermès brought its home universe to life in eye-popping fashion at a one-night-only extravaganza staged at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. The lavish performance featured dozens of dancers showcasing the French luxury house's furniture, tableware, textiles, and decorative objects in elaborately choreographed vignettes that seemed to riff on the unboxing ritual so popular on social media-a supersized spectacle of conjuring magic from ordinary crates. The event also coincided with the 10th anniversary of Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry's tenure as artistic directors of the Hermès home division.
