A dialogue between sobriety and exuberance. The legs evoke at once the sensuous shapes of baroque columns, the presence of tribal artifacts, and the surreal biomorphism of modernism, recalling turned wood furniture of the 17th century. It challenges the flatness of minimalism while resisting the decorative overload of past eras. Instead, it insists that design can be sensual, sculptural, and mysterious without relinquishing its role as furniture.
The forest's heart is laid flat here; the grain map tells a slow story of time upon a surface awaiting feasts and talk; hands meet across the grain's time lines.
The top plate of the Metamorfosi table series is constructed from a hand-welded steel frame on which a hand-polished Ash veneer is applied. The four legs are hand-lathed and hand-polished in solid Ash wood.
Named after deities in Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Metamorfosi are offered with four different, exchangeable leg designs.
