Cristina Celestino is a young designer/maker who self-produces many of her projects with the brand Attico design studio. She uses her home as a showroom to exhibit her creations in a domestic context.
Using her strength of heightened sensitivity, she dedicates herself to the rediscovery of forgotten typologies, such as perfume atomizers, once indispensable on a dressing table. Despite being accessories from another time, her incisive design, tinged with subtle irony, gives objects a contemporary image: there are no easy vintage allusions for her bottles and atomizers, made of clear borosilicate glass with polychrome details, produced by Seletti.
The Olfattorio series is among her most recent projects, vases in borosilicate glass destined to house fragrant flowers, protecting their scent with a semi-transparent cap and the Miuccia vases, featuring a feminine silhouette, designed as a tribute to Milan, capital of fashion.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
