FORTE_FORTE FIRST AMERICAN BOUTIQUE IN LOS ANGELES

A balance of matter and light and in an ineffable balance of the geometric and the organic: forte_forte opens in Los Angeles.

April 1, 2022

Robert Vattilana and Giada Forte materialize an aesthetic that is both ineffable and precise, delicate and sturdy with the opening of forte_forte‘s Los Angeles boutique.

At 8424 of melrose place, expresses a desire for simplification, which amplifies the emotion in the dialogue with the city of angels. The boutique is located on the ground floor of a building that can be approximated to the 1930s.

Two shop windows open onto the street, framed by the sage green enameled metal facade. The door, recessed with respect to the facade, is made of enameled wood, with a large round grit handle.

The furnishings add further modulations to the counterpoint of textures and colors. A large circular bench, with perforated leather cushions, hollowed out, like the two vases at the entrance, in an agglomeration of grit, white stones like salt crystals and bright green stones of jade; seats in curved wood covered with gold leaf.

At the back of the shop, the dressing rooms open like a jade green capitonné velvet shrine behind two curved brass doors with large portholes.
