Venice, Alsace and Designer Felice Pessi: a Tradition in Three Voices
The creative story of Luciano Marcato after 2010 is one of a successful transformation: not the erasure of an identity, but its evolution under new guidance. Felice Pessi is the key figure in this transition: his style steers the Luciano Marcato collections into a world of refined plains and semi-plains, with unusual patterns, vibrant colour combinations, and innovative textile technologies. The Orizzonte and Cosmopolitan collections are the most complete expressions of this new creative direction: fabrics enriched by the patina of time yet reinterpreted in contemporary contexts through modern finishes and colourways. The iconic fabrics of the founding era — precious sheers in silk, linen, and cotton; striped curtains; jacquards with ornamental medallions; florals with a silk effect — remain part of the catalogue's DNA, updated in their colour palette without losing their recognisable character. The balance between tradition and contemporaneity is the promise that Luciano Marcato renews with every new collection.
Jacquard, Sheers and Micro-Weaves: Fabric as an Authored Material
The Luciano Marcato catalogue is not simply an assortment of fabrics: it is a system of thematic collections in which every fabric is designed to coordinate with the others in a conceptual way. Each collection includes original patterns matched with plains and semi-plains, creating complete and coherent proposals for decorating any type of interior. The fabrics are made with selected European yarns — viscose, polyester, cotton, linen, silk, and exclusive blends — worked using jacquard, velours, organza, and precision voile techniques. Widths reach up to 297 cm for double-height curtains in the sheer line, such as the Maddalena collection, which works transparency through traditional geometries reinterpreted via sophisticated industrial processes to play with light and colour. Fibres and constructions are selected according to intended use: lightweight curtaining for windows with abundant natural light, heavy velvets and jacquards for upholstery and drapery, mixed fibres for optimal durability in contract settings.

FAQ – Luciano Marcato: Your Questions, Our Answers
Are Luciano Marcato fabrics also suitable for high-end contract use in hotels and hospitality projects?

What are the main fibres used in Luciano Marcato collections and how do you choose the right one?
Luciano Marcato collections use blends of selected European fibres: viscose for the silk-like sheen of jacquards; polyester for colour fastness and abrasion resistance; cotton for a natural hand and breathability; linen for the organic texture of structured curtaining. The choice depends on the intended application: for curtains in high-light environments, cotton-linen voiles with light-treatment are recommended; for high-use upholstery, polyester-viscose jacquards with high abrasion resistance; for decorative low-friction drapery, viscose velvets with ornamental motifs.
