The Fortuna concept iterates the splendor and finesse of nineteenth-century design with the iconoclasm of twenty-first-century culture, channeling historic influences—Jacques Dupuis’ Maison Le Parador, the Château de Ferrières, and the Prince Asaka residence in Tokyo—through the contemporary avant-garde. Siphoning the sartorial opulence of Dries van Noten, the spectral mathematics of Tauba Auerbach, and the experimental sculpturalism of Vincenzo De Cotiis, it evolves a timeless present with a futuristic ambience, expounding on Chroma’s signature riposte.
