CATEGORY: TERRITORIO & DESIGN
PROJECT: FENCE
The approach to the use of marble starts with the knowledge of the processing techniques that each company makes available with its machinery. Only in this way can the logic of seriality of a design project find correspondence not only from the point of view of economic sustainability, but also of the dimensional perfection of each piece, despite the uniqueness given by the grain and color variations of the material.
AN ARCHITECTURE IN ARCHITECTURE, LIKE A SACRED FENCE THAT DELIMITES THE SPACE CREATING INTIMACY IN THE ENVIRONMENTS
Fence was born with this awareness: a simple module that has very little waste in processing, can be assembled serially in variable and potentially infinite dimensions by combining full (marble modules) and empty, with an effect of great lightness and further possibilities for system development.
LUDOVICA & ROBERTO PALOMBA
Ludovica+Roberto Palomba, architects, work and live in Milan. They founded Palomba Serafini Associati in 1994.
They received numerous international awards such as Compasso D’Oro, Elle Decoration International Design Award, Red Dot, Design Plus, Good Design Award, German Design Award.
Ludovica+Roberto Palomba plan architectures and design exhibitions worldwide. They work for and are art directors for some of the most established brands.
Brand Credits: Antolini, Benetti, Bisazza, Boffi, Brix, Cappellini, Dornbracht, Driade, Elica, Elmar, Exteta, Fiam, Flaminia, Foscarini, Kartell, KitchenAid, Kos, Laufen, Lema, Plank, Poltrona Frau, Rapsel, Redaelli, Salviati, Sawaya & Moroni, Samsung, Schiffini, Tubes, Valli&Valli, Viccarbe, When Objects Work, Zanotta, Zucchetti.
Curated by Raffaello Galiotto and Vincenzo Pavan
This exhibition analyses topics associated with design using natural stone by highlighting the special features of materials from various production and processing centres in Italy in order to promote technical content based on tradition and the cultural heritage.
Designers in the forefront of current trends in design and architecture team up with companies based in various areas of Italy with characteristic identities in terms of materials, processing and technological experimentation in order to develop quality design products expressing the skills of these areas.
Compared to the design experiences promoted by Marmomac in previous editions focusing on the creativity of designers through free experimentation, the “Territorio & Design” exhibition is a specific project that aims to create industrial design products identified by stone materials.
The advent of new digital cutting, machining and modelling technologies – used by companies involved as partners in the event – means that stone can close the gap with the “dominant” materials on the design market since mass production processes typical of industrial items are now possible. This also makes it possible to promote the plastic, tactile and chromatic qualities of materials and develop products ensuring functionality, practicality and high formal content.
