1. SLALOM

ECOround is a thermoformed panel with a strong geometric character. It is a particular scenic element, which can enhance its retro flavor according to the color choice of the wide palette, but it can also become a lunar element of abstract landscapes.  Available in two different versions, ECOround absorbs reverberation by porosity or membrane to ensure effective performance depending on the function of the space. Particularly suitable for retrofitting, it can be used in already existing false ceilings in order to redesign new areas. It has a harmonious shape even if it is applied to the wall, where it highlights three-dimensionality.

2. FANTINI

Designed by Studio Charlie, Eclipse is a collection of brushed stainless steel bathroom fixtures with a shiny, upper rotating element in polished steel. The characteristic opening and water adjustment controls swivel out of the vertical axis of the base, reminiscent of the moon eclipsing the sun.

3. LET’S PAUSE

The Couro Pod hanging lamp joins together six American palm leaves to create an evocative light fitting. The seams of the  sewn leaves are part of the design, lending the lamps a “skeletal” look, each one different and unique, an organic composition. The rounded form and its dimensions (40 cm in height) lend the pieces great character and presence. Perfect for living rooms, dining areas and other commercial uses like in lobbies, hotels and restaurants.

9. ARTAIC

Riptide is an illustrative representation and interpretation of the way that water and sand can create unique shapes and patterns. To create the design, mosaic designer Jude Dahill used traditional pen and ink drawing as the base of the design and blended mixed media to achieve a balance between the bold linework and blending of the color gradients. The design is reminiscent of water flows and currents, large bodies of water, and sand dunes whose movements bring comfort. The collection’s original colorways are Ice in 1/2 in. vitreous glass, Turquoise in 1/2 in. vitreous glass, Graphite in 3/8 in. natural stone, and Desert in 3/8 in. natural stone but can be fully customized to feature any color story or tile type.
