Flynn
FLYNN is a 3d-printed vase, where a three-dimensional matrix defines a shape whose silhouette reminds an archetipal pottery vase. The matte white matrix lean on a purple glass, onto which you can pour water.
Bundled
BUNDLED is a range of furniture born from a research in fibers made in 2011 while deepening the use of natural composite fiberboards. The material used is a special cotton fiberboard, normally rigid and stiff, usually used for insulation in electronic appliances (it’s used as a support for guitars’ electric pickups) or as a gap-filler...
Sable
A mono-block LED lamp that visually self-declare itself, easy to understand, where all the parts are extremely clear and recognizable. The technology used to produce the body is metal sand casting, because it generates a complete part and allows cost reduction. The lamp shade is intentionally quite small, because I wanted to stress the fact...
Torii
Japanese shinto shrines are introduced by huge gates, made in wood, called Torii. They’re characterized by some basic, linear elements assembled in a firm and solid way, and their columns are often tapered. This chair is somehow near to the structure of the gate, since almost every part is lathed with a precise angle to...
Aquilles
Using reflection to cast indirect light onto the desk. This is what Achille Castiglioni thought for its Gibigiana lamp. His lamp is roughly an empty cone, into which the bulb is placed while, on the top, an adjustable tilting mirror reflects the light. In the same way, Aquilles reflects the light casted by a bulb...
Zellij
Modular room divider. The extremities of the modules can be fixed together, creating a 3D mesh you can attach to others to create large systems. The material choosen is an organic vegetable fiber pressed and sprayed with natural latex, even if another version has been successfully tried, made in felt (cheaper, but equally working). This...
Magritte
Magritte is a lemon/lime squeezer and reamer. Its wings act in turn as an actual reamer or the handle to rotate the object inside the fruit. Made in standard injection, it’s easy and light, and can be easily manipulated.
Offset
Bent plywood stool. A large plywood sheet get bent and cut in bars. These bars get screwed together with three milled legs, so the structure is solid and steady. The stool, can be shipped in a very small package, and it’s painted everywhere but the seat area, to show how it’s built. Its particular production...
Jachin
The lamp was born thinking about torches and their exaggerated technical appearance. I’d have loved creating a torch someone wouldn’t close in a drawer, and with Bosa we thought about an hybrid you could hang as well like a normal suspension lamp.
Atlas
Atlas is a rotational moulded bench designed for Slide Design, intended for indoor as well as outdoor use. I admit I started thinking about smokers (fortunately, I don’t belong to this catetgory any more…): since smokers act in Europe, pubs and bars don’t allow smokers to smoke inside public buildings, so it’s full of people...
