B-OK Marica Vizzuso
is the summary of an intellectual process that uses a game of contrasts. B-oK is the dichotomy full / empty where the compactness and the stability of a material such as iron is interspersed by the absence of the material itself, which creates an overall visual lightness. This process results in a structural elegant contrast of light and shadow that characterize the environment that surrounds it. B-ok is also action / stillness that reveals the versatility of this furniture. Interacting with it can vary its shape tower, in a zig zag, which assumes the function of a room divider. Oppositions simplified in a rectangular metal, in which you can put stacks of books with neat extravagance and adapt to the needs of the spaces.
“Annibale” by Davide Paganotti
is the rocking elephant in 98% recycled honeycomb cardboard, felt and wood. The honeycomb cardboard has a thickness of 16 mm, is sturdy and suitable to withstand the weight and stress of small riders. The brown honeycomb, a neutral and natural color that communicates the sustainable nature of the product, and the white outer part create an effect of chiaroscuro and movement. The cardboard, deliberately white, can be colored and personalized with crayons, markers, tempera, stickers or other to make Hannibal "your" Hannibal. The wooden details combined with felt and cardboard fit harmoniously and give greater strength. The felt on the seat and on the sleds makes it possible to cushion movements and not damage the floors.
