Thinness Collection
A material as resistant as steel, geometric shapes intersecting, drawing 3D compositions which seem to twirl suspended in space,the Thinness Collection is a journey into lightness, with furnishing elements made entirely of very thin steel plates, - 2 or 3 mm thick - folded, welded, ground and finished by hand. Designed by the London-based Italian duo 06D Atelier and made entirely in Brianza (Italy), using both hi-tech and hand-made processes,these objects reflect the pioneering spirit of their native country where beauty and innovation are inherited elements sculpted in the DNA.
Celestial triangulations between points of the firmament delineate mythological figures.
This is the thought of our ancestors, who thus traced maps of known figures to reassure themselves against the dismay of the unknown.
And those bright spots, stars, connected by imaginary straight lines created by the constellations familiar names. Animals, heroes, objects of daily use - projecting their everyday life into the immensity of the sky.
Perseus
and Pegasus
A
couple of tables that takes its name from a mythological couple, the
hero Perseus who - according to a version of the myth - killed the
Gorgon Medusa, who had the power to turn men into stone. The hero
defeated her and cut off his head, and from his neck came out the
winged horse Pegasus, later used even by Zeus to transport his
proverbial lightning. Today, no more heads of snake-haired monsters,
nor lightning to sail the sky, but elegant tables to accompany
everyday life, which live on their own life, but are best paired.
The
Perseus and Pegasus tables, in two different heights and complementary geometric shapes,
are made by 3 mm thick steel plates to increase strength and
stability with brushed satin finish.applied by hand. Available in Matt Edition in customizable colours,
and gold edition limited to 33 numbered pieces.
