Gabriele Pezzini, the new maestro of Hermes

Other designers have the boot dubbed the Warrior designer. In countries Achile Castiglioni Gabriele Pezzini is known for his stubbornness and his requirement, including vis-à-vis manufacturers. Qualities far from discouraged Hermès just make its design director.
KNOW-HOW TRADITIONAL AND INNOVATIVE DESIGN ARE ITS ENGINES OF CREATION. Hermes, IL VA Delicious … FIRST BREAK BEAUTIFUL? BAG HECTOR.Hector is he. Hector? This is the new bag by Hermès, designed by Gabriele Pezzini, the new director of design of the house of the Faubourg. Originally designed for the safety of the Bugatti Hermès scratched Hector – Hector Bugatti to – die “version store” these days. A sort of induction for Gabriele Pezzini. Shaven head to toe sneakers, T-shirt and smiling man is not a creator spotlight. Installed since his departure from Milan, in his own design studio near the Buttes-Chaumont few gallops workshops parent in Pantin, Gabriele Pezzini has an idea: find the form that embodies the best function of an object beyond the mere aesthetic criteria. It is a profession. Gabriele Pezzini has learned to Florence in the oldest design school in Italy before joining in 1991 at the former furniture maker French Allibert. There Gabriele Pezzini has developed a model of stackable plastic chair named Europa produced over five million copies since its inception in 1994. A true industrial success. The title has to offer Hermes is also more common in industry than in luxury. “The invention and functionality are part of the history of the house, along with quality materials and craftsmanship, said Gabriele Pezzini. In the early twentieth century, Hermès has developed the” Top Bag Belts “for easy transport of feces that produced the House. Émile Hermès is also reported that in Europe the zipper of the United States. We’re really in a house design.

It Corinne Poux, Director of Innovation at Hermès remark that, since 2003, the years of experimental industrial designer at an exhibition in Italy. Among them, Plag in a funny candle jack cover: “The surprise of seeing a candle attached to a power, brings a destabilizing effect and smile but the challenge is to show the cultural value of an object “says the designer. Convinced of his talent, commissioned him Hermes then two creations of luggage, then “dressing” of the Bugatti Veyron Fbg and a Eurocopter. Not less than fifty amendments were necessary to allow Hermes “sign” the helicopter: the redesigned landing gear, seats expanded, the rack installed inside the armrest, the chromatic scale review … “Hermes wants to explore new territories of expression through such partnerships. As director of design in relation to these projects, my mission is to showcase the craftsmanship of the house by incorporating design just like I did for the car and helicopter. I work on the consistency of these projects, “explains Gabriele Pezzini has chosen since his appointment last December, still retain its independence. Last month, he presented and lamps for society Oluce during the week of furniture in Milan.

If special projects around the Bugatti or the helicopter just beginning to be delivered to the happy few who have placed orders, customers are more likely to be able to get Hector, the new travel Hermes bags that goes with the model originally designed for the trunk of the Bugatti. Playing with the codes of the house and always the interaction between substance and form – a hidden inside pocket stitching, the zipper recalls the history of Émile Hermès … – Gabriele Pezzini has added a handle and straps that allow two models to hang them to double the capacity of the luggage in the version store. Leather and canvas officer, Hector is made by hand in 24 hours, by the same artist as is the tradition in the Hermès workshops. “When I am satisfied with something, I do not want just to add a second just to create business or make my self-promotion,” says Gabriele Pezzini.

The latest creation which he is proud? Moving (at Maxidesign), a plastic stool designed in 2004 on the principle of a bucket of range: equipped with a handle, it is transported from one place to another. Some of his colleagues reportedly chained to other projects. He also communicated last year on this stool. “Why do you want me to give the press project pat-dazzle for the sole purpose of satisfying their demand, while Moving is what is most successful on the market?” No rush, at Pezzini, time of harvest comes always after germination.
