PUSHING TABLE

 

The name: why "Pushing”
The name refers to the technique of installation of the object: the legs are inserted in the plane and are held in place by the push of two elastic curves in wood that do not allow them to go out from the interlocking.

The elastic parts are joined by a large screw whose head rests on the plane and with two other rings tightens the elastic parts that you can build with different materials: in brass and gilded wooden for a baroque image, resin to tack toward modernity, and if you want a vintage style in Bakelite. It works as a bridge resting behind the abyss that must be overcome. The shoulders are the legs, the springs are the supporting arches and the plan is the bridge.
In the object shown the top is in glass in such a way as to allow the view of the mechanism and the representation of the forces that hold together the object. The legs are tapered solid wood and ending with a small tube of polished brass that contains the rubber foot adjustable; there will be no adhesive to join the parts.

POLTRONCINA ALIEN

 

In ALIEN chair the upholstered seat, slightly concave and armrests make it particularly welcoming and comfortable staying.
The anthropomorphic backrest with oval openings that look of the eyes and the space between the seat and backrest, suitably shaped reminiscent of a mouth does the chair with a recognizable personality and memorable, and the decision to call it ALIEN is the direct consequence.

The empathy that comes from this subject involves the emotional side of the user who is attracted and then, at a later time not least, seduced by its comfort. It is an unconventional choice that can fit even for the furnishing of offices and meeting rooms, the colours are designed to contribute to the emotional feeling like the electric blue and the bright colours.

"UN BANC LONG"

 

The project describes a seat for public areas with innovative features aimed to do the rest more relaxing and more pleasant, it is an object suitable to outdoor areas, an urban design that we think more comfortable than those that are currently in production and typically utilized by municipal administration.

Innovation is inserted onto the traditional form without dramatically changing it, rather integrating it with rising backrest and lengthening the seat that is designed for supporting legs as in a chaise longue.

The structure is made of galvanized metal or stainless steel, while the seat, the back and the footrest are provided in larch strips spaced from each other in a way that is not collecting rainwater.

The colors are green, which fits perfectly in the Italian parks, and the complementary red that makes it immediately visible.

The body structure is constructed with a aeronautical technique.
Even supports are inspired to the aeronautical technique: spears bent metal that connect to the body of the drawers with chrome screws are inserted in the wood truncated cone legs. A horizontal tension bar with hooks at the ends serves as a structural brace.

SPHERE FOR ITALIAN PESTO

 

Contest ADI “PESTO & MORTAIO”

The pestle is formed by a sphere from which by subtraction is formed the handle.

The bowl has a hemispherical recess.

This project responds to the need to have a larger surface area available: the solid form of the pestle, in fact, generates a friction area adapted to facilitate more extensive crushing of the components.

The handle is solid and strong and allows a rotational movement, instinctive and simple, comparable to that of a millstone.

The rounded and smooth shape with no corners or recesses, also under the handle,

has been designed to allow a perfect cleaning after use because there are no parts where the liquids may stagnate.

Pestle: diameter 15.5 cm

Bowl: diameter 20 cm x 9
