Lives
Vite
VITE is a publishing initiative with which Foscarini talks about light, starting
not with the company’s lamps but with the individuals who live in the spaces
brightened by those lamps: an exploration of different interpretations of the
home, the relationship with light, the link between life in the home and the
space outside. Selected for the ADI Design Index 2021, VITE (LIVES) is a
voyage that takes us to five cities across three continents, inside real lives of real people – guided by artist, photographer and videomaker Gianluca
Vassallo and writer Flavio Soriga. People are at the centre of the visuals and
the narration, allowing viewers the freedom to roam vicariously inside personal
spaces, real spaces that are approachable and imperfect. Not carefully
controlled environments, “aspirational” images of photographic sets,
but rather homes that are lived in on an everyday basis, and close-ups
of the people who dwell in them, from Copenhagen to New York, Naples,
Shanghai and Venice.
