A house turns its back on the road to open up to the landscape
The single-family house project designed by Elena Gianesini engages in a dialogue with the Vicenza landscape, combining tranquility and contemporary style through essential geometries and the Mazzonetto metal roofing.
As with the table set launched in 2011, this range of accessories also comes in white porcelain and stainless steel, with the exception of the eggcup, which also comes in a thermoplastic resin version.
Meanwhile, the elements that make up the Dressed in wood collection are made from beech wood: a breakfast board, a serving board, two trays, a cheese board, a cake stand, a lid and a centrepiece. For the production of the Dressed in wood collection the company put its trust in the skills of the craftsmen of the nearby Valle Strona, highlighting the ancient local wood processing tradition.
