Virgo is a structure which becomes a bookcase but, in fact, leads us to think about concave and convex surfaces relation as about the energy of a tightrope. The composition of force is clearly expressed in the final equilibrium. The sculptural form of Virgo makes it usable both on the wall and, above all, as […]
Anapo’s collection of tables, in the rectangular and circular version and in different sizes including a side table. Its inspiration lies in the Sixties and in a specific idea of middle-class home torn between rigour and softness, luxury and functionality, indifferent to passing fads.
In a room for the well-being many elements called furniture are necessary that actually once set remain fixed. I always reject the tendency to overload the space; therefore I have always worked to the limit of need. The seat Block born with this aim in 1970 is now reedit with the same function but with […]
in the eclectic identity of Driade, i have always perceived a hint of french culture, just as i have always been fascinated by the interiors of parisian homes for their expert combination of furnishings and classical items, along with vintage pieces and contemporary objects.’ Alberto Lievore La Francesa issues from this imaginative background, a refined […]
“MT”, or the initials that calls these pieces designed by Ron Arad, are pronounced in English as “empty”. The void is the key element of this project. The volume, made through a rotational molding, is in fact carved and shows provocatively the inside, finished in different colors. From the typological point of view also worth […]
Neoz sofas, bed and day-bed emphasize the formal charateristics of the collection they belong to, by building a sort of living nest marked by the hem-stitched tissue whiteness, like past laundry, and the cushions’ softness. Large wheels, though, suggest it as an only termporary luxe.
The Tokyo-Pop collection marks, in 2002, the debut on the international scene by Tokujin Yoshioka, now considered one of the masters of contemporary design. The sofa, the armchair and especially the chaise longue and the stool, forget the banality of rotational molding to become sculptures. Unforgettable and unusual shapes.
Design has recently begun to reread the last 80s, a period full of hedonistic sings. Ludovica and Roberto Palomba embrace this input in a collection for driade that combines some of this aesthetic hallmarks as straight cast-aluminium structure elegantly painted and damier decoration.
Even a classical image, as a railed chair, in the hands of Philippe Starck acquires a particular connotation. In Pip-e, the sequence of horizontal elements, which create the seat and back definetly, takes on a strong chiaroscuro and goes, unexpectedly, to accompany the bending of the knees.
A minimal top, in crystal or canaletto walnut veneer, suspended on two independent wood structures: the result is a very refined table, thanks to the elegant details and the lightweight look of the piece overall.easel, designed for Driade by Ludovica+Roberto Palomba, is a table that plays on proportions and dynamism.
The design of the Mingx collection issues from the same tubular profile that also inspired the bookcase zigzag, and develops into an extensive family of elements: seats, stools and tables, which establish a harmonious mutual dialogue that also extends to the bookcase. the name Mingx clearly refers to the Ming dynasty that most influenced the […]
