Vshape Mattina

Vshape Mattina is a stoneware tile designed to cover a stair step with a single element. The tile emulates the look and structure of wood in a floor-board format of 30 by 120 centimeters. The curved nose is formed from one ceramic piece through a gravitational bending process during a second firing. The double firing strengthens the technical parameters, making the tile resistant to frost, slipping and cracking. The surface is textured and matte, and five color shades are offered. Vshape Mattina suits stairs, terraces, balconies and window sills, indoors and outdoors.

Exosuit Storage Shelves

Exosuit Storage Shelves is a wall hanging storage system designed for use in several living spaces. Ultra-thin aluminium replaces the wood structure commonly used on walls, giving a modern appearance. Each shelf board has a thin front edge and a trapezoidal hollow section at the base next to the wall, which lowers the weight and raises the load bearing capacity. An ultra-thin LED lamp strip adds controllable light. Standard sizes and a range of colours suit the living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. Assembly on the wall is simple.

Serpentinata

Serpentinata is a writing pen made by 3D printing. The design responds to the waste created by mass production, where more goods are made than are needed. Digital fabrication allows each pen to be produced only when it is required, so surplus stock is avoided. The twisting form recalls figura serpentinata, a Renaissance technique that adds a spiral movement to the human figure to create a graceful and dynamic effect. The shape is intended to give visible form to intelligence and to ideas born from inspiration.

Furthermore, Full weighs 19 grams, which provides good sense of holding to enhance its user experience.

Eternity

Eternity is a metal pen designed for everyday writing. The body is made of aluminum and is shaped by high-precision CNC turning of an aluminum tube. The surface is frosted by sandblasting and polishing, then treated with anodic oxidation to make the texture smooth and glossy. The frosted finish softens the reflection of the metal and gives a delicate touch. The random texture refers to the circle as a symbol of time. The clip is cast in zinc alloy and hand ground, and a built-in spring structure holds the pen in books and pockets.
