Aquaflor returns to Homo Faber 2022

Florence-based perfume atelier Aquaflor participates in this year’s Homo Faber in Venice. The international event promoting artisanal talent is back for 2022 under the name ‘Living Treasures’ to showcase an impressive variety of materials, techniques and skills through live demonstrations, immersive digital experiences and imaginative displays of handcrafted creations. From functional everyday objects to outstanding decorative pieces, the scenic event highlights craft’s role in creating a more sustainable and inclusive future.

From April 10 until May 1, the event will transform the magnificent spaces of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini, located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore in the heart of Venice. Ideated by a group of world-renowned curators and designers, this year’s edition offers a rare opportunity to admire the ‘living treasures’ of European  and Japanese craftsmanship through 15 exceptional exhibitions led by passionate students of the Young Ambassadors programme. 

As in 2018, Aquaflor will once again create a new fragrance for the occasion. The perfume house devotes itself to the art of perfumery using artisanal methods influenced by the historic Florentine tradition, making it a perfect candidate for the ‘Living Treasures’ event. Inspired by the continuous search for an artistic balance between tradition and innovation, Aquaflor adds a contemporary twist to an olfactory composition made of high quality materials. Their new fragrance is captivating and decisive, a scent that will put you at ease and restore a sense of tranquility. 

The brand will be featured in the exhibition titled Details: Genealogies of Ornamentation which showcases 14 luxury maisons dedicated to creating unique works in a multi-level space, curated by Judith Clark and designed in collaboration with Sam Collins. The world of perfumes, and Aquaflor in particular, flourishes thanks to international influences and an open-mindedness towards newness while always keeping a keen eye on tradition.
