Missoni Home Collection – Cactus Garden. Rosita Missoni sits on a colorful pouf or table made from sculptural polyethylene, from the Missoni Home Collection, called Pitagora and designed by Cristiano Magnoni. Cactus Garden is the name of the new collection, hedges and screens thickset with cacti, the story continues in varicolored coral reef-like atmosphere of a garden oasis. Hints of light and shade, of sunny or aquatic tones for beach towels or for printed cotton satin on a matt/gloss checkered background, The indisputable elegance of sturdy chaises longues with multicolored corded seats reminiscent of the warp threads of a woven fabric. “The collection is called Cactus Garden because I love plants and nature. From it’s textile centric beginnings Missoni Home has moved into a full home collection, whose every detail exudes research, new ideas which translates into exclusive colors and forms.” Rosita explains.
