The cultured and omnivorous voracity of Philippe Starck faces, in Neoz collection, the poetry of solid wood and the traditional archetypes form is reviewed. The result is a timeless collection characterized by straight lines as well as by a strong image.
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.
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.
Antonia Astori calls ‘memory furniture’ those pieces which tell something about people attention to indoor living. An attention expressed both by the recovery of disappeared archetypes, eg. canopy bed, and in precious materials manufacturing, eg. pleached roped steel headboard.
Born out of the fascination by those big rattan or cane armchair so common in South East Asia, Patricia Urquiola creates her own sophisticated rendition.Volumes expand, braids are doubled, patterns appear unexpectedly and gracefully fragmented. The Pavo collection introduces a strong exotic connotation.
The conical shape of the base allows for continuous oscillation, which finds its point of balance only thanks to the support of the feet of the user on the ground, who comfortably sits floating while sitting.
