Portable Lamp

Friday, 25 October 2024

Scacco Matto

Scacco Matto draws inspiration from the 1960s radical design movement and invites audiences to explore and interact with shapes and light. Featuring three magnetically connected elements, the portable lamp can be transformed in five different light sculptures, to inspire a new interest in the role light plays in transforming the look, feel, and atmosphere of homes. It can be used as a vase, sculpture or to focus light on a particular area. The five possible combinations are reminiscent of chess, hence the name Scacco Matto, the Italian translation of checkmate.

Coffee Set

Water Droplet

Water Droplet is a coffee set inspired by the rounded form of water droplets. The set includes a coffee pot, coffee cups, saucers and a fruit plate. Each piece is made of porcelain clay, cast in plaster molds taken from a 3D printed resin model and fired to 1250 degrees Celsius. The curved handle offers a comfortable grip, and the contact point between the handle and the table adds stability to the coffee pot. The lid has no protruding knob and uses an inward curve, so the droplet shape remains complete.

Sculptural Sink

Equilibrio

Equilibrio is a sculptural sink that explores the contrast between the countertop's delicate inclination and its robust volume. Made by the assembly and modeling of several stone pieces in order to achieve a rounded format, the actual sink is created by a diagonal section and a slight tilt of the upper portion of the piece. The suggested supports are asymmetrical, with a hollow tube covering the plumbing on one side and a skinny leg on the other, but this piece could also be used without the supports.

Wall V4

Wall V4 is a floor-standing television stand designed to hold large screens close to the wall. Televisions up to 90 inches from many manufacturers can be mounted safely at a preferred height. The supporting column offers eight height levels of 5 mm each. Cables and screws are hidden inside a double-layered panel, so the setup stays neat. The base is made from a 2 mm steel plate shaped by pressing and reinforced by a radial frame, which keeps the edge thin and reduces the risk of tripping. Assembly is simple and needs no changes to the room.
