Omri Revesz + Damian Tatangelo, Trestle, Mingardo

Under the artistic direction of Aldo Parisotto, all the new pieces have the shared aim of highlighting the aesthetic qualities of metals via different treatments and finishes that bring out their expressive potential and produce different design outcomes. Matt or shiny, raw or painted, natural or coloured, brass, copper and iron form a dialogue between each other or with solid wood.

New products include Trestle, a trio of tables in solid wood and metal with a design based on a simple joint between the frame and top designed by Omri Revesz+Damian Tatangelo; Felice, a double-side table-mirror with one side in copper and one in polished brass and Fido, a side-table with a minimalist, graphic appearance, both designed by a/r studio - Antigone Acconci+Riccardo Bastiani. Aldo Parisotto+Massimo Formenton meanwhile have come up with Donald, a wall hanger that pays tribute to Donald Judd and Bicroma, a bench that emphasises the contrast between industrial aesthetics and precious finishes in copper and brass.
