As often happens when fashion houses approach to design, lifestyle collections reflect, when well designed, the brand philosophy. In the case of Diesel this means irony, audacity and a strong personality. Recalling the roots that Diesel finds in denim, Diesel Living collections are characterized by raw materials, mixed shapes and special treatments on the finished product. For Salone del Mobile 2015 the new collections with Foscarini, Moroso, Seletti and Berti were presented as a big family that lives under the same roof, in a space designed to represent a home installation where Diesel products enliven the different thematic areas. Nightlife, Make Love not War, Urban Blue and Poplife: these are the different interpretations of the brand’s core values, telling about a soul that is rock, military, denim and pop as well as in pret-a-porter collections. Furthermore this year, in addition to collections of furniture and accessories, Diesel has presented its first collection of wooden floors, in collaboration with the Italian brand Berti; it also gave its interpretation of outdoor living and, as a fundamental component, of lighting. All of this outlined a complete lifestyle, which extends even to table accessories of the Diesel Social Kitchen designed with Scavolini, placing the kitchen as heart of the home.
