Inside a Historic Atelier: Discover Venice’s Art and FabricsEnjoy private access to one of Venice’s most storied ateliers
Tucked away in the heart of Venice, the Fortuny showroom offers an intimate glimpse into one of the city’s most iconic names in design. During this private experience, you’ll discover the legacy of Mariano Fortuny, the visionary artist and inventor whose textiles and techniques continue to captivate the worlds of fashion, interiors, and art.
Your visit begins with a guided introduction to Fortuny’s unique production methods combining tradition with innovation. Surrounded by elegant displays, you'll have the opportunity to see and touch approximately 50 exquisite fabrics, each revealing a story of texture, light, and craftsmanship.
From there, you’ll be invited into Fortuny's private garden, a serene and hidden oasis rarely seen by the public. This quiet moment in nature offers a contrast to the city’s energy and a deeper appreciation of the space Fortuny once called home.
Your experience concludes with an exclusive look at the adjacent building restoerd by designer Chahan Minassian, where contemporary elegance meets historic architecture, offering yet another layer of creative inspiration.
