RANGE ROVER UNVEILS MILAN DESIGN WEEK LANDMARK INSTALLATION IN COLLABORATION WITH NUOVA GROUP

Presented at the 18th century Palazzo Belgioioso, Futurespective: Connected Worlds is a dynamic experience that transports visitors between two time portals. Together with Range Rover’s in‑house creative team, NUOVA visually narrates Range Rover’s design lineage and enduring influence on modern luxury through a cinematic journey across the two distinct eras, from 1970 to 2025. A multisensory experience, the interiors include bespoke furniture and soundscapes alongside custom scents by Aeir, NUOVA’s carbon negative luxury fragrance brand, all designed exclusively for Range Rover.

The historic Piazza Belgioioso becomes the stage for time travel with a 25 metre monolith in the centre of the Piazza, adorned with a gold Range Rover brand motif that signals the entrance for time travel. Transporting visitors back to the moment of the inaugural vehicle production, the first capsule takes inspiration from an original 1970s car dealership. At its centre, a particularly significant Classic Range Rover: the very first of the marque’s pre‑production vehicles built ahead of its launch in 1970, ‘YVB 151H’ sits within a nostalgic seventies interior. A celebration of the earliest Range Rover and the brand's roots in luxury design, the two‑door pre‑production car in its original Olive Green colour is staged within a wooden paneled room with rich colours and tactile textures. NUOVA has designed custom furniture pieces for the space, including an oxblood red sofa, a circular version of their Enzo table in white Carrara marble and bespoke desk chairs. Retro details—such as a fish tank, archival artifacts, and original sketches—enhance the era’s ambiance. The space is bathed in a warm light from 44 bespoke beam ceiling lights, accentuating the iconic silhouettes and luxurious colours within the interior.

A multi‑dimensional experience, the time spent in the first portal is an orchestrated musical performance which play through Dorothy, their chrome plated speaker in the space and is filled with Grand Rose, an incense‑like fragrance that evokes the scents of the seventies with notes of old dollar bills and leather. NUOVA has created bespoke artifacts for time travel for Range Rover, alongside custom‑designed furniture, outfits for the ‘time travel’ concierge have been designed in collaboration with LA based luxury garment atelier L’Equip, inspired by 1970s workwear and British fashion.

From here, visitors journey into the next timeframe. Representing Range Rover’s contemporary vision, the second capsule is a future‑looking ethereal space with a prismatic light box interior lined with vertical mirror pillars, acting as symbols for strings of time. In the centre of the space, flooded by light, is the latest fifth‑generation Range Rover Autobiography, an emblem of modern luxury travel. Crafted with a Bespoke metallic green exterior finish – a tribute to its Classic predecessor – the interplay between the two cars and spaces is a symbol of the brand's informed evolution and identity. This capsule offers a moment of reflection, with ambient sounds and a custom cool scent Wet Stone filling the space.

Throughout the time travel experience, guests will be guided by hosts who embody their respective era.
