From the Lens of Gianluca Bellomo
Where light and darkness intertwine, revealing the soul of design.
In the ever-evolving dialogue between art and design, Anatolia proudly presents the latest installment of From the Lens, a series that unveils our collections through the distinctive visions of masterful photographers. Commissioned for this series, Gianluca Bellomo captures the essence of light and shadow, distilling every moment into a striking balance of contrast and clarity.
Mastery lies in the ability to harness the nuances of illumination—how light spills over textured surfaces, how darkness carves depth into materiality. An analogue approach lends a timeless quality to each frame, allowing Anatolia and Aeterna’s collections to emerge with newfound intensity.
Through this perspective, Anatolia’s sintered slabs transform into dramatic landscapes of texture and tone. Each composition unveils the inherent beauty of the materials, celebrating the intricate veins of Montagna Grey, the golden warmth of Taj Mahal, and the delicate translucence of Super White.
The dynamic contrasts in these images accentuate the subtle complexity of each slab’s design. Terrazzo Delicatto’s fragmented patterns appear suspended in motion, while Aura Fresca’s gentle gradients shift between shadow and glow, conjuring a sense of perpetual movement. Each surface becomes a living canvas, where light and texture converge in an intimate, tactile dialogue.
Light reveals, shadow contours—shaping depth and presence.
The From the Lens series is defined by its ability to evoke emotion through materiality. Here, raw sophistication emerges in the quiet drama of Lithoform Vista Crosscut Vintage, captured in compositions that bring out every nuanced detail.
This collaboration is a testament to Anatolia’s commitment to reimagining design through artistic vision. The featured collections are not merely captured—they are illuminated, their essence distilled into moments that linger beyond the frame.
Spaces—not only seen but felt—shape our perception and experience.
In the Terrazzo Delicato room, fragments of stone seem to float within a luminous surface, catching light at every turn. The dynamic interplay of shifting highlights and soft shadows brings depth and movement. Polished yet organic, structured yet fluid—Terrazzo Delicato transforms the space into a canvas of contrast and harmony.
Every detail tells a story—etched in texture, revealed in light.
Side by side, Velutto Ash and French Vanilla create a striking balance of depth and warmth. The subtle ash-grey and velvety brown hues of Velutto Ash absorb light, lending the space an intimate, grounding presence. In contrast, the creamy tones of French Vanilla catch the light, casting a soft, inviting glow. Shadow sculpts the richness of Velutto Ash, while light amplifies the warmth of French Vanilla. Together, they create a space of quiet drama—where contrast is not opposition, but harmony.
The beauty of a surface lies in how it catches the light, how it invites touch.
