Luca Guadagnino’s Dreamy Home Collection Lands at Zara

Luca Guadagnino, the Italian auteur behind Call Me by Your Name and Challengers, has just taken his love of interiors off the screen and onto the living‑room floor. In partnership with long‑time production designer Stefano Baisi, the pair have curated a massive new line for Zara Home, and yes, it actually feels like stepping into one of Guadagnino’s films.

The collection, dubbed Baisi Guadagnino for Zara Home, is anything but modest – more than 200 pieces ranging from curvy sofas and sculptural lighting to hand‑woven rugs, tableware, scented candles and even a gender‑fluid ready‑to‑wear capsule. Think Viennese Secession curves rubbing shoulders with French Art Deco glamour, Brazilian Modernist boldness and the slightly rebellious edge of Italian Radical Design.

Every item has been given a name that sounds more like a travel diary than a product tag – “Purkersdorf”, “Nape”, “Ophiuchi”, “Blinking” and “Sacred Spring” among them. The designers describe the suite as an “atlas of desire”, a map you can walk through, sit on and even wear.

True to Guadagnino’s cinematic instincts, the launch is accompanied by a short film penned by Scott Z. Burns (you may know him from Contagion or The Bourne Ultimatum). The spot stars Jamie Bell, Chase Sui Wonders, Michael Stuhlbarg and Patricia Arquette, and it plays out like a polished set‑design showcase.

In terms of fashion, the ready‑to‑wear portion leans into fluid silhouettes: oversized tweed blazers sit beside sculptural dresses, all rendered in a palette that pulls from Belgian colour theory and Japanese volume play. It’s a little bit tailored, a little bit avant‑garde, and entirely unapologetic.

Those who can’t wait to see it in person will have a chance during Milan Fashion Week. Zara Home will host a two‑day pop‑up on Sept. 26‑27 at La Pelota, housed inside a site‑specific installation that Guadagnino and Baisi designed themselves. Doors open at 11 a.m. and close at 9 p.m. each day.

The collection drops worldwide on Sept. 26 through Zara Home stores and the brand’s online shop. Whether you’re redecorating a whole apartment or just hunting for a statement candle, there’s a good chance you’ll find something that feels like a set‑piece straight out of one of his movies.
