Ultraselection

Marsèll presents ULTRASELECTION, an exhibition that reinterprets Murano glass through a series of objects by 6:AM, a brand operating at the intersection of research, design, and traditional craft. Marsèll and 6:AM share much in common: both are rooted in the Venetian territory yet known globally, and their work begins with attentive engagement with materials and a deep appreciation for artisanal know-how. The result is a series of design pieces that transcend trends and redefine what contemporary means. The encounter between the two brands transforms the store on Via della Spiga in Milan into a terrain for experimentation, where leather and glass, design and architecture, past and future come together organically. ULTRASELECTION is part of Spazio, a series of site-specific interventions by artists, designers, and curators created to transform the flagship store on Via della Spiga, Milan, into a platform for cultural exchange and shared expression.

For ULTRASELECTION, 6:AM presents ULTRAS, a new collection of glass light fixtures that, like goblets spilling light, cast a chromatic glow all around. Rendered in three color combinations — yellow and red, blue and light blue, and blue and red—the collection also includes a line of vases and draws inspiration from Italian football fans culture. The installation also features other pieces from the 6:AM repertoire. The 1/1/1 Side Table is born from recycled molds taken from the glass hot shops: each imprint produces a one-of-a-kind topography of folds and ripples, whilst a veil of Carrara marble powder gives the glass a mineral tactility. The NM21 Table, on the other hand, is a table in aluminum and Murano glass created in collaboration with the Milanese design firm NM3. Alongside these interventions, the Sistema and Quadrato collections help establish a rhythm of contrasts and harmonies, sparking a dynamic dialogue between the objects’ design and the architecture of the space.
