As a member of the family that has epitomized Italian "alta moda" for four generations, Gigliola Castellini Curiel grew up in a world where an awareness of color, texture, shape and line was a staple, as basic to living as bread and water. “Always being in contact with beauty certainly formed my way of imagining interiors as works of art,” explains Gigliola, whose apartment in Milan is expressively nonchalant. Books and art fill the expansive living room, which is punctuated by a towering Coromandel screen, a wedding gift from Gigliola’s mother. A variety of seating pieces — including a sofa Gigliola designed — form a welcoming ensemble. Head to the link in our bio to take a tour of Gigliola's carefully curated home.
