Arketipo – Maldini

Vanity Fair

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:26 +0000

Designed by Gino Carollo, Vanity Fair is a different way of appreciating mirror design. The designer has opted for a rhomboid design to reflect discreet preciousness and beauty by contrasting materials like velvet and leather with the smoked glass element. Alone, paired, or even as a row of three, Vanity Fair is flexible in its use and approach to interior design.

In-Dependent

It could be that we’ve forgotten how to use partitions, yet In- Dependent may make us reassume a love for them and the space they capture. This new and unique design looks at overlapping, in sequence materials creating a highly expressive three-dimensional effect. Naturally, partitions are about creating divisions in space, allowing new perspectives and illusions thanks to the mirrored element as part of the material choice. The result? A combination of function and form that reveals new ways to look at your room depending on where you place and use it.

Iride

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:24 +0000

With its lines and circles, strong geometric styling and a somewhat subtle ode to Kandinskij, Iride is a sculpture that when lit, sets an ambience of its own making. By playing with contrasting shapes and distances, our designers have managed to take the interconnected arrangement and create strong emotive resonance with halo effect lighting. Shifting sculpture into living art at first sight.

Képi

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:24 +0000

We play with simplicity regularly. Why? Because simplicity is the hardest design form to perfect. It requires precision and attention to detail. It requires knowledge of the materials and what is possible. Képi as such is the latest to play in this area. It is without pretension, yet through a sober and classical interpretation, inspired by the shape of a cylinder; it generates a dynamic figure in its own space. An indisputable star of understated contemporary design, rendering it a gem of the most exclusive interiors.

Bubble Bobble

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:23 +0000

If we were to tell you that we found the inspiration behind this design from a computer game, what would you say? Soap bubbles perhaps? Both? Design has a way of playing with irony, using it and transforming what is, at first, a strange idea into something tangible, new, different. That is Bubble Bobble, inspired by the unusual and with a sense of irony. Recognisable by the three glass spheres of different sizes and available in two distinct finishes, they are supported by thin metal strips, playing with natural light between the spheres artificially created by the shapes. It’s an emotional construction, one that senses and creates a room’s ambience with ease and elegance, all thanks to a play of a few curious minds

Blob

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:22 +0000

Laced with intricate details and a savvy design mantra, Blob is the neo-classic lamp that is fit for the modern home and everything it embodies. From the nuanced coloured cables which latch onto the stems bringing personality and exclusive insights into design, to the different finishes and stem colour choices that showcase appeal and sensitivity to new environments, Blob is for the modern visionary of interior style. Original in execution, shrewdness in reinterpreting the sinuous shapes of nature, Blob sets a vision of what is possible in providing theatre and drama to lighting a room. Included in its repertoire are desk and suspension varieties, each with their own take on providing effect when hung and pointed at various angles.

Truman

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:19 +0000

Harry S. Truman became president of the United States at the end of World War II. Controversial during his tenure, soon after his death he was celebrated throughout the political spectrum as a model of bold and confident leadership. As he himself said: “Men make history, and not vice versa”. Made with refined zebrano or eucalyptus wood, the Truman console is the true embodiment of audacity. The irr finishesegolares of the marble on the top produce a strong visual impact at first glance and its unique design seems to challenge the status quo. At the same time, its vertical metal elements – true distinctive trait of the entire collection – they give it a cool and self-confident tone. The metal dividers are worked with rough surfaces, using special artisanal treatments, heirs of an ancestral wisdom, to obtain an extraordinary effect.

Show your independence with the Truman console, and make your story bold.

Target

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:18 +0000

With its simple design, you’d be forgiven for thinking that there is nothing special about Target. Yet, that is where you would be mistaken. For every cross that is placed in the structure, a somewhat cruel yet pleasing illusion appears: that for every book placed on the shelves, the number of crosses seems to increase at the same time. Target is a bookcase that plays with the imagination as well as the fantasy of the novels that could be found inside of it.

Soho

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:17 +0000

When fashion, style and culture collided in the mid-XNUMXth century, London was the center of the world and Soho was its capital.

The fabulous 60s ushered in a new way of thinking and living. The design was not and would never be the same and, for this very reason, our bedside table deserved a name that was suited to the ideas of his time. Gino Carollo has created something that embodies the style of the fabulous 60s with a nod to modern day culture. Wood and glass represent today’s interpretation of high quality materials used in the most precise way, while the geometric shape reminds us of the period of transformation towards global culture. Freed from its fluid form, SoHo is a geometric construction of three different elements that overlap perfectly, creating a strong and expressive form, without losing any of its deli touchcato.

When old meets new it’s always a great idea.

Roxanne

Vicky Blumberg — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:47:11 +0000

A punk drummer, an English teacher and a jazz guitarist: an unlikely trio? No gentlemen, the Police.

That is, the musical equivalent of this work by Giuseppe Viganò, born from the encounter between three equally heterogeneous ingredients: a modular design, a micaceous structure and shelves in glass or wood. Just as the name of the British band immediately evokes the poignant and passionate tango that made more than a generation sing, the name of Viganò refers to all the microscopic details that are needed to create such a unique piece of furniture. The composition, the balance, the disarming juxtaposition of materials, the composure.

Roxanne blends all these notes into a riff that no one would ever associate with a hit. Nevertheless…
