A vision of 2100 where

A vision of 2100 where the future meets the past.

In an era of extreme technological evolution, humanity rediscovers the beauty of craftsmanship, natural materials and pure products. This project imagines that future through the rebirth of a centuries-old Italian pharmacy jar.

I created a special edition of two pharmaceutical jars, inspired by the historical object "Pharmacy Jar", divided into two distinct lines:

ACQUA (Sea · Movement · Purity) Acqua Mirabilis · Bath salts Olio di Talamone · Body oil Sapone del Porto · Solid soap Candela Acqua · Candle

QUIETE (Land · Stillness · Nature) Teriaca Botanica · Herbal tea Incenso di Bosco · Incense / candle Olio della Sera · Night facial oil Elettuario di Miele · Infused honey

The two lines represent the duality between sea and land, movement and stillness, water and earth, while celebrating the diversity and purity of Italian products.

Concept: Set in 2100, the concept imagines The Metropolitan Museum of Art celebrating the 700th anniversary of the jar’s rediscovery through two special-edition gift sets.

The two collections transform the historical pharmacy jar into a contemporary celebration of Italian heritage and craftsmanship, giving a centuries-old object a new meaning and purpose.

The historical pharmacy jar becomes a symbol of this return to authenticity: the more technology advances, the more we value the things that technology cannot replace.
