Gio Ponti with Piero Fornasetti,
Zodiac Suite, ocean liner Andrea
Doria, 1950.
Colored photograph from an Andrea
Doria advertising brochure. Ponti
and Fornasett achieved a game of
reversals with the blue-and-white
pattern on pattern, engulfing the
entire room and distorting spatial
reading, but with an unexpected
intimacy of enchantment.
