Designed by Umberto Bellardi Ricci
From the first piece of bent metal, Umberto Bellardi Ricci experiments with shapes and reflections to capture and refract light as if it were coming from the curves of a spiral while the light source remains embedded in the initial fold. Designed for Tacchini, the Ancora rolled mirror captures light in the metal curves and diffuses it onto the reflective surface. Linked to the designer?s recent studies on the spiral of the golden ratio, Ancora deviates from pure geometry to become a wall mirror that brings a modern reinterpretation of sculptural light into domestic spaces.

This feature, together with the panel on the back that allows a 360° rotation, allows to create infinite combinations, with even newer effects. Available also in the smoked and bronzed version to get further chromatic choices.
Two furnishing elements of pure material. Two architectural blocks in perfect scale. The materiality of the concrete becomes the protagonist and is expressed through irregular surfaces that recall the raw wood with which the formwork is made ? the wooden formwork used in construction that holds within it the shape to be created by casting […]

Still considered today one of the most characteristic and complete collections ever designed by Frattini, Serie 500 was born from careful observation of the need for a new way of living, and new functions filtered by the designer?s aesthetic sensitivity and his historical memory.
