Regenerate space, rediscover the human
At Milan Design Week 2025, domusbreakfast@bocconi explores the connection between urban and relational regeneration, with design as a tool for connection. Among the key participants, Franke highlights the role of the kitchen as a vital space for nurturing relationships and renewing the social fabric
Monumental and ephemeral structures, primitive and contemporary transparent rocks: these are the installations designed by Objects of Common Interest for the ADAM Design Museum in Brussels, which are on show until 27 September 2020.
Inspired by the archaic culture of the Cyclades Islands and the work of Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957), Eleni Petaloti and Leonidas Trampou, a duo working between Athens and Brussels, design monolithic shapes using translucent materials and mirrors. Their Standing Stones are therefore both heavy and light, simple and sophisticated.
Together with the installations is the series of Opal Bent Stools that, arranged in a circle, invite reflection and debate. The twelve semi-transparent and iridescent seats are seemingly melt acrylic blocks rested atop two posts, creating elementary and monolithic pieces.
