Adrofita
The pot rescues cultural traits: the object is appreciated not only as a decorative element
Afrodita is inspired by the ancient Greek culture, was designed from a Socratic dialogue, which seeks to establish delicate conversations between the axes that make up the pieces. Art, design, traditional, modern and interculturality are the essence of this materialized communication, which results in a set of pieces with a perfect balance between proportion, balance and harmony.
These pieces take as their first reference the Hellenic aesthetic model, full of grace, sobriety and elegance. Each of them rescues cultural traits: the object is appreciated not only as a decorative element, but also as a channel to tell magnificent stories from the past and present. These narratives are told through design and materials, which were carefully selected with the intention of taking advantage of the diversity of rocks and elements that the region provides us with.
The main piece of the collection is a flowerpot, referring to vegetation as an element of great natural beauty.
