“In a wonderful collaboration with
GQ Magazine, the designer styled the
extraordinary Bachelor Pad.
Maurizio was given carte blanche to
source the location and theme of the
two room settings.”
Maurizio Pellizzoni provides unique experiences through luxurious
residential and commercial home interiors as well as furniture
designs, as he will personally create a bespoke piece or space that
matches the clients’ needs. Pellizzoni’s signature style is defined
by an ultimate modern and timeless elegance. The designer
has conceived some of the most magnificent interior spaces for
international references, including the stunning GQ Bachelor Pad.
The project took months of preparation but the final result was
simply mesmerising to its beholder. In a wonderful collaboration
with GQ Magazine, the designer styled the extraordinary Bachelor
Pad. Maurizio was given carte blanche to source the location and
theme of the two room settings.
While in search for a wedding venue for him and his partner,
the designer found a Grade II listed former Georgian Chapel in
Peckham, named The Asylum, knowing in that moment that it
would be the perfect location for this project and all its glamorous
features. The Italian designer immediately distinguished what the
type of theme he wanted to create, a masculine and industrial
chic space that would be rather exceptional. Originally set on a
living room anchored with a Baby Grand piano, Maurizio’s natural
design prowess expanded the narrative into two room sets, a living
room and a music room, adjacent to the former.
In the duration of four months, Pellizzoni came up with the visual
mood boards to present to the team at GQ, creating as well room
set floor plans, visiting suppliers, sourcing items, and other aspects.
The site was rather large, so the designer felt the need to include a
series of architectural features in the schemes.
The partially destroyed wall doorway behind the Poliform
bookcase leaks light in through the window but more importantly
displays the contrast of rough texture. As with all of Maurizio’s
projects, it was important to respect the appearance of the original
structure of the building. He worked with the existing colours to
select the final pieces to create a masculine ambience with a touch
of luxury and add colour throughout using a display of artworks.
Maurizio set out to translate his passion for design, art and
beautiful interiors to GQ readers, but most importantly, to
challenge the standard perception of luxury.
