Rowland+Broughton x NasonMoretti - Alpine Meadow Collection

Alpine Meadow, the new collection designed by the architecture studio Rowland+Broughton for NasonMoretti.

The project brings together the vision of the husband & wife team, John Rowland and Sarah Broughton, with the century-long heritage of the historic Murano brand, renowned for its design objects for the table and decor.

In their work, Sara Broughton and John Rowland have been inspired by the Italian tradition of the 'bottega,' a creative workshop spanning multiple disciplines to achieve a holistic vision. In this spirit, they saw a natural connection with NasonMoretti's ability to craft objects in which aesthetics and functionality coexist. Central to their approach is the idea of 'convergence,' where every element in a space intentionally exists between art and function.

NasonMoretti's historic archive became a rich source of inspiration for the architects. Exploring designs from the 1960s through the 2000s, they revived models-some untouched for over 80 years - reinterpreting them through a contemporary lens while paying homage to the brand's artisanal heritage.

The collection's defining features lie in the brand's rich colour palette and the remarkable versatility of glass - more than tools for personalisation, they are true vessels of expression. Through Rowland+Broughton's vision, Murano colours convey a personal notion of 'home' and evoke the landscapes held most dearly by the duo: the mountains and plains of Colorado, where their studio is rooted. Shades of green, sky blue, peach, amber, milk white and steel conjure blooming alpine meadows, frozen lakes, rugged rocks, and snow-capped peaks, while touches of gold capture the delicate shimmer of sunlight on snow. Each piece emerges as a miniature masterpiece, a perfect union of craftsmanship and poetry.
