RED MEMORY RUG 
 Epoxy Resin, wool. 
 Milano 2012 

"The objects have memory. Objects are memory.
Often the stories telling us about carpets, exotic cultures, colors and designs with antique or contemporary. Some cultures still consider the carpet, like the boundary of domesticity.

Sometimes even what's under the rug tells stories.
Conventional wisdom we hide the shame of the "dirty", sometimes there are coins, but on closer look under the carpets you can find pieces of memory that the house "hides, but does not lose" 
Thus the form of a forgotten book, or that of an old game, the relief of some questions, and some pieces of history to take shape and color daily maid giving "tangibility" in memory of becoming a "red memory rug"
The meaning of what is under the carpet is really subjective and those who watch and uses it. "

 Petali per MILA SCHON, 
 polyhurethane, brass. Milano 2011 

From the Press Kit of the show Collezione Mila Schon PE 2011:


"Sovrapposizioni di petali e accumuli curvilinei caratterizzano gli accessori: ciondoli, collane e orecchini di oro e resina colorata, e poi composizioni astratte di petali da indossare come acconciature hanno un carattere fitomorfo.

Leggerezza. Equilibrio. Movimento.

  Lacrime di coccodrillo. (vanity tear)


Se il design adulto avesse ancora voglia di giocare con se stesso vivremmo in case capaci di trasmetterci lungimiranza  e ottimismo.
Ne gioveremmo tutti, su diversi piani della nostra vita.

Partendo da giocattoli ho cercato di lavorare sul linguaggio del design, passando per processi produttivi che strizzano l'occhio
Sono convinto che fare design passi anche dal suggerire comportamenti. Per questo motivo le sedute sono inseparabilmente due, a suggerire un dialogo, in opposizione alla presentazione diffusa di sedie,  poltrone e complementi ispirati al monologo alla chiusura ed all’alienazione.

Nascono da giocattoli ma assumono una forma nuova per essere utilizzate quotidianamente.

Non hanno una forma seria.

Si dice che le “lacrime di coccodrillo” siano dedicate ai pentimenti, in realtà sono solo un sistema per liberarsi di sali e tossine usata da organismi che non possono sudare.


Sono ancora troppo giovane per pentirmi..

THE WORLD IS YOURS COLLECTION 

 polyurethanic foam, PVC. Milano 2011 

"The world is yours" is a self-produced collection of objects created by the union of inflatable globes with polyurethane foam.
because of the production process each object has its own pleats characteristics that make it unique.
the project wants to suggest people to recover and get back into the world, transforming it into something new and better.
We have harnessed the geography of our planet so that nobody in the world could feel distant or lost wherever they are. We always knows where we are, and our world has no more mysteries to propose.
'we all know the shape of the earth, everyone knows the way to return home, some lucky people know what is their place in the world and each has its own horizon to chase.
One step a day, if possible.
The small collection "the world is yours" is made of polyurethane foam, living material that takes unpredictable forms and directions spontaneous and unrepeatable.
In its small way is a representation of our life on earth.
The colorful new worlds crumpled assume functions for which are not meant designed to, but they are useful items and cheerful.
There is nothing that a vase, a bowl or a wine basket can teach us about our planet, but they may help us remember that never before has the world been so handy for anyone, and it needs us. let's take it back.


Now the "World is Yours".
