mascheroni's power of luxury design shapes iconic leadership spaces

Mascheroni’s influence on luxury with handcrafted excellence

It goes without saying that form, material, and craftsmanship subtly shape the spaces where history is written – and Mascheroni continues to prove just that. The Italian company, known for its artisanal excellence, has long furnished the offices and chambers of global leaders, where comfort, elegance, and prestige converge. Through its project, the executive office perched atop a skyscraper in New York, Mascheroni redefines the workplace as a fluid, dynamic space. From the Prior desk taking center stage to the Airone 127 executive chair, ergonomic luxury meets tailored craftsmanship.

A clientele of power and prestige

For nearly five decades, Mascheroni has pursued a vision of ultra-premium craftsmanship, where every piece is handcrafted in Italy by a single artisan, ensuring unparalleled quality and individuality. Eschewing mass production, the Italian brand sees each creation as an enduring work of art – designed to be repaired, cherished, and passed down through generations.

Mascheroni’s pieces furnish spaces of influence, from royal palaces to high-level institutions, reinforcing its position as the brand of choice for those who shape the world, including the Shura Council in Qatar, Fabergé Museum in St. Petersburg, Bernard Arnault, Jacob&Co, and Atlas Bar in Singapore. Collaborations with elite institutions, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Riyadh and the International Conference Center in Algiers, further reinforce Mascheroni’s role as a silent yet profound presence in the world’s most influential spaces.

Skyline sophistication with an office in motion

‘We don’t have an image policy, we have a product policy,’ expresses CEO Piero Mascheroni, summarizing the brand’s philosophy. This philosophy becomes evident in the executive office perched atop a skyscraper, embodying the rhythm of modern leadership. Designed as a seamless interplay of movement and light, the space reimagines the office as an organic flow rather than a static environment. Mascheroni’s products, sculpted to appear in motion, lend the setting a sense of energy, reinforcing the ever-evolving nature of power and decision-making.

At the heart of this space the Prior desk stands as a testament to Mascheroni’s mastery. Handcrafted from rich leather and rolled steel, it is more than a desk, but a statement, commanding attention through sculptural elegance. The Airone 127 executive chair, upholstered in 3M/A Biscotto leather, complements this centerpiece, offering ergonomic luxury with its tailored silhouette and meticulously crafted details.

Mascheroni’s vision extends beyond furniture, evoking an immersive sensory experience. The interplay of materials defines the space where sculpted woods, marble, and warm leathers create a dialogue between robustness and lightness. The Concorde chaise longue, with its concealed motorized adjustments, transforms the workspace into an enclave of relaxation. In contrast, the City Ballet bifacial bookcase, with its spiral-shaped marble column, injects a sense of theatricality, elevating storage into an art form.

Complementing the room, the Prior table with curved or elliptical shapes, the embracing seats, and the sculpted dividers boost a fluid environment where every element seems to float in space, inviting interaction and movement. Each piece is designed to adapt to the context, creating a space that is not only functional but also stimulates creativity and collaboration.

Meanwhile, the lounge area within the office serves as an oasis of relaxation and style, offering a more laid-back approach to office living without compromising on elegance. The La Goccia seating collection expresses a balance of experimentation and craftsmanship, appearing as a single sculpted piece, where the backrest, seat, and armrests seem to be carved from the same material. Completing the room are the prestigious Casa degli Dei tables in Carrara marble, the refined Fenicottero in Sahara Noir marble, and the Caramella, adding a touch of luxury and sculptural lightness.

Glass surfaces amplify the presence of natural light, merging interior and exterior into a cohesive whole. This transparency enhances the perception of movement, allowing each Mascheroni piece to interact firmly with the surrounding cityscape. The Skyline Sophistication project goes beyond a mere office, becoming a study of elegance, function, and spatial harmony.
