Iedde Mussel Knife
The Grammella, a tool used to shell Taranto black mussels, is a typical object of Taranto, Italy. Iedde is the result of a redesign operation focused on the analysis of the traditional tool, its use, the historic and geographic context and mussel. The ergonomics of the tool derives from the handle, whose shapes lend themselves to being received in the palm and from the blade that arises spontaneously following the curve of the grip, to connect harmoniously to the base. This makes the tool easy and comfortable to handle. Iedde is an iconic tool that represents the maritime culture of the city.

Bilico Table
Bilico is a modular garden table that owes its name to the structure composed of modules which, ending in a single support stand, make the table visibly unstable. Thanks to its modularity, it is possible compose tables from the smallest circular shape one, with two opposite heads, to the ideal infinity using central modules. The table, made of Pietra di Trani (a typical stone marble from Trani area), is completed by the central tub, led light equipped, where the accessories (trays, flower stands, lamps, cutlery trays, cutting boards, etc.) are housed.

Forrest Bench
Forrest is a monolithic bench which bases its elegance to the minimal and clean shape and to its projecting structure covered with porcelain stoneware that embellishes the surfaces. Thanks to these elements, it's possible to perfectly emulate any stone, wood or metal while maintaining the technical advantages (durability, lightness, resistance, etc.) that such materials usually do not provide. The structure is completed by the lightened corten support made almost evanescent by plasma cutted textures and by the led light placed under the projection that offers pleasant plays of shadows.

Chiglia Table
Chiglia is a sculptural table whose shapes recall those of a boat, but they also represent the heart of the entire project. The concept has been studied in virtue of a modular development starting from the basic model proposed here. The linearity of the dovetail beam combined with the possibility of the vertebrae to slide freely along it, guarantee the stability of the table, allow it to develop in length. These features make it easily customizable to the destination environment. It will be enough to increase the number of vertebrae and the length of the beam to obtain the desired dimensions.

Arca Sideboard
Arca is a monolith trapped in a net, a chest that floats adrift along with its contents. The lacquered mdf container, enclosed in an ideal net made of solid oak, is equipped with three total extraction drawers that can be organized according to various needs. The rigid solid oak net has been modeled to accommodate the thermoformed glass plates, to obtain an organic shape that simulates a mirror of water. The entire cupboard rests on a transparent methacrylate support to emphasize the ideal floating.
