Nina Yashar, founder of Milan's Nilufar gallery, has redefined collectible design since its inception in 1979. Initially known for antique carpets, influenced by her father's Persian rug business, her vision shifted after a transformative trip to Stockholm in the 1990s. This led to a focus on both historical and contemporary design in her exhibitions. The opening of Nilufar Depot, a cleverly designed space celebrating modern design, has solidified her status as a leading force during Milan Design Week, attracting collectors and design enthusiasts alike.
Nina Yashar's vision for her Nilufar gallery, established in 1979, has evolved from focusing on antique rugs to contemporary design, cementing her influence.
A pivotal trip to Stockholm in the 1990s led Yashar to reorient her curatorial approach, incorporating contemporary designers alongside historical pieces.
The opening of Nilufar Depot, transformed by architect Massimiliano Locatelli, has made it a destination during Milan Design Week, showcasing the evolving design landscape.
Yashar's innovative exhibitions, including her collaboration with Martino Gamper, demonstrate her commitment to bridging historical and modern design through contemporary reinterpretation.
