Static Movement
This product manifests an essential design, which connects function and idea through precise craftsmanship. The project wants to describe the moments spent today in the kitchen, often lived in a frenetic way. The legs of the sideboard simulate a fast movement, like a run. The main feature of this product is the material: it is made entirely of centenary olive tree. The Designer says that the timber was obtained from some specimens felled due to a land deficit, which brought these trees to the end of their life cycle. This project was made entirely by hand.
