Pavé
The Pavé collection stems from the design evolution and material translation of the modular system Psaico, an iconic project by the designer that combines rigor with an apparent sense of randomness. Geometric forms reminiscent of Opus Incertum, where layout and surface generate a “controlled irregularity”, give rise to a terrazzo reinterpreted in a contemporary key.
In its transition to the textile dimension, the tile increases in scale, gains height and changes material, transforming into a living surface. The modular logic remains, yet becomes softer: small archipelagos of geometric shapes thus form large, hand-knotted material islands.

Studio Irvine
Marialaura Rossiello Irvine is the creative force behind Studio Irvine. Trained as an architect in Naples under the mentorship of Riccardo Dalisi and later educated in Strategic Design at Politecnico di Milano, her work is grounded in a deep respect for the cultural and narrative foundations of architecture, bridging design, industry and communication.
Guided by research and historical awareness, she deliberately avoids predefined styles or typologies, defining her approach as a radical whisper: a quiet yet rigorous transformation driven by material, ethics and time. Marialaura’s portfolio includes collaborations with international clients including Arper, Muji, Thonet, MDFItalia, Valdama, Olivari and Mattiazzi, among others. Based in the center of Milan, Studio Irvine operates across industrial product design and architecture, with a strong focus on architecture for interiors, where projects are conceived as complete environments in which space, light, material and furniture are designed as a unified system.
The studio also works in art direction and strategy consulting, approaching each project through material research, mono-materiality and an industrial mindset aimed at reducing material waste.
