Cities collection riva1920
Design accessories inspired by the world’s symbolic architectures
The Cities Collection represents a unique concept born in 2024, through which Riva1920 celebrates World Architecture Day each year by transforming the iconic architectures of the world’s most fascinating cities into design accessories.
Each piece in the collection is crafted from fragrant Lebanese cedar and reclaimed Venetian Briccole. By reusing production offcuts, Riva1920 gives new life to materials that would otherwise be discarded, combining sustainability with timeless elegance.
With the Cities Collection, you can choose to purchase the full composition dedicated to a city or each individual piece, creating your own personalized design city. Bring the art and charm of symbolic architectures directly into your home!
The Cities Collection expands with a new chapter inspired by one of Riva1920’s most iconic reclaimed materials: the Briccole of Venice. Taking this symbol of the lagoon as a starting point, Authentic Design chose to work with colour to pay homage to the island of Burano—renowned worldwide for its vibrant houses and architectural charm, which draw visitors from across the globe every year.
- The collection includes:
Three small houses, inspired by the shapes of iconic island buildings, crafted in Briccola wood and enhanced with coloured lacquered glass inserts. - A Briccola post with a lacquered glass base, a clear tribute to the famous mooring poles that dot the Venetian lagoon.
Accessories that bring character, materiality and a contemporary design spirit into interiors, while celebrating Riva1920’s artisanal heritage.
Explore the Cities Collection and discover how to combine the elements to create a custom city, enriching your space with exclusive and sustainable pieces.
