FORTUNY + CHAHAN is a special collaboration that introduces design and art to the Venetian community by transforming the former house of Countess Gozzi adjacent to the iconic Fortuny Factory into an enchanting gallery that blends contemporary artwork and upholstered furniture with the Fabric house within the historical setting.

An Unprecedented Collaboration
Interior designer Chahan Minassian's mastery seamlessly blends contemporary elements with Fortuny's unrivalled fabrics, handcrafted by artisans at the original factory established by Spanish artist and inventor Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo in 1921. This fusion promises a transformative perspective on the art of living, creating an immersive experience where visitors can acquire furnishings and objects, bringing a piece of Venetian living home.
