Premium Italian coffee brand, Lavazza, is sponsoring the major retrospective of photographer Miles Aldridge’s ‘I Only Want You to Love Me’ at Somerset House. As part of the sponsorship, the Lavazza Café Bar will be open from 4 July to 24 September in a specially-designed space serving up Lavazza’s authentic Italian espressos, cappuccinos and lattes to Somerset House visitors. Lavazza has collaborated in the past with Miles Aldridge, the British fashion photographer who is celebrated for his colour-saturated images of glamorous models. Aldridge conceptualised and shot the infamous and collectible Lavazza calendar in 2010 which featured such famous faces as Daisy Lowe, Georgia Frost and Lydia Hearst. He also contributed a self-portrait photo to the 20th edition of the Lavazza calendar in 2012.

The Lavazza Café Bar, a contemporary white lounge, will offer a stylish place for visitors to relax who are passing through Somerset House or coming especially for the exhibition. Coffee lovers can enjoy three works by Miles Aldridge on public view in the café, which are not included in the retrospective. Also, a Lavazza logo made of brilliant blue light bulbs will be displayed which is inspired by Aldridge’s popular Nessun Dorma photo.
