Who I am, What I do
I have founded Antonio Comini Progetto Legno (Wood Project) in 1987.
The design and production of solid wood operas is a real culture and passion with whom every day I transfor natural wood into art objects or furniture.
Each project I develop is unique and comes from the choice of the type of wood, its grain and color, using different essences including walnut, hickory, oak, linden, maple, cherry and other natural materials.
One Vision: Inspired by Mother Nature.
My works are essentially inspired by the shapes of the various elements and materials found in nature. Both aesthetic sense and hands are driven by the forms of water and ice, sand and dunes, rocks and soil, plants and even animals.
All the working processes starting from the design, material selection, cutting, gluing, carving, smoothing, are all done by hand.
The finish of the artifacts or furniture is carried out using products strictly non-toxic, non-hazardous to health and moreover to Nature. In this way the artworks are free of any plastic, artificial elements and pollutants for people, animals and the environment.
All my efforts are focused to create artworks and furniture able to cross the centuries, being built to be handed-down from generation-to-generation.
The use of natural solid wood in the construction gives it an unlimited duration and the ability to live in harmony and balance with people, environment and animals.
The natural wood for me is synonymous with wealth and preciousness.
