We’ve been there before. Today we return with the episode of MTV Cribs Italia on June 23rd – on first TV on MTV (Sky channel 131 and streaming on NOW), also available on Paramount+ from the following day. Because yes, Elisa Maino – TikTokers by millions of followers – opens the doors of his apartment in Milan: “a serpentine of contemporary environments”, as we wrote some time ago. And it shows the curious small screen audience the total contemporary framework within which it lives: an interior project by Nick Maltese. Thus, the Milanese architect who collaborated with Fede Pagetti Interiors to create a safe nest in the heart of the Milanese bustle signs the attic address that is the backdrop to the influencer’s everyday life. Here, digital living tickles the sky of the fastest city in Italy, guarding, between the squared, linear and oblique walls, a space that has belonged to Elisa Maino for at least a couple of years.
Elisa Maino
“This is the living room, one of my (perhaps) favorite areas of the house, because it’s super bright – so waking up here in the morning with this beautiful sun gives me so much motivation to start the day.” And light is necessary for a business that makes (also) through the cell phone camera. Of this decidedly convivial space, Elisa Maino is fond of her sofa: a large piece of furniture that corresponds to the same color as her dog’s coat. The reason? The cleaning. And in the order of things, we know that the project sews an environment that is also the rewriting of a hotel room to the extent of a life that deals with the Web. After all, what role should the theme of travel have in the life of one of the most famous faces of social networks? Central, we imagine. And in this setting that recalls the attics of the Ville Lumière, we leave the floor to Elisa Maino. In this prime time on MTV, she takes us through areas that play with perspectives. There, there are also collectible furnishings that contribute to starting a dialogue around an issue: the celeb they really love icons. And they know how to choose them well.
