rialto
Design by Antonio de Marco
Rialto is one of the few archetypal architectures of the bridge idea.
I wanted to be inspired by this architecture and its context to design a family of tables where there is no “leg” element, where there is no “crosspiece” element, but where there is a single geometry that links all the elements together in a continuous solution of mutually influencing sections.
I then chose to present it with a green coloured glass top because I wanted it to be reminiscent of the water in the canals of Venice, which gives a glimpse of the foundations of the palaces below. So also in the Rialto table I must be able to see through and appreciate the refinement of the wooden structure which, as in Venice constitutes its foundations, here constitutes its architecture. – Antonio de Marco
