PROSPETTIVA

The CARDIO armchair, by Fabio Novembre, takes shape from an immediate and universal sign: the heart. Not as a romantic symbol, but as a vital and concrete element—that which sustains us without depending on our will. This image translates into a soft, enveloping seat, where the design echoes the lines of the heart, transforming them into a welcoming and protective volume. CARDIO is designed as an object to trust: soft, stable, and capable of supporting the body naturally. An upholstered piece that combines strength and sensitivity, transforming a universal sign into a concrete experience of comfort. The YVE’S armchair by Piero Lissoni is born from a simple and precise gesture, a project that reduces form to the essential. A bent line continuously traces the base, armrests, and backrest support, creating a lightweight tubular structure that rigorously defines the object's profile. The aesthetic is clearly rationalist: every element responds to a constructive logic and a formal balance where nothing is superfluous. The armchair, suitable for indoor/outdoor use, is composed of independent parts—structure, upholstery, and cushions—designed to dialogue through different combinations of colors and materials, offering great compositional freedom. The color palette mirrors the play of contrasts and pairings found in the Thierry collection, reinforcing a coherent and recognizable visual language. YVE’S thus takes shape through the calibrated relationship between its parts: measured proportions, soft volumes, and an essential structure that supports and enhances comfort. With VITE, Ferruccio Laviani takes inspiration from a mechanical element and translates it into a lamp with an essential and immediate sign. Inspired by the shape of a screw—an object born for function—the wall lamp adopts its formal clarity, transforming it into a contemporary language. The hexagonal geometry, derived from metal hardware, becomes the design principle that defines the product's identity and introduces its systemic dimension. VITE can be used as a single element or aggregated into larger compositions, transforming from a single light point into a continuous luminous surface, monochromatic or polychromatic. Made of recycled technopolymer, the lamp reflects Kartell’s approach to industrial design, where formal research, technological innovation, and attention to sustainability are integrated into a single solution. The SPEIRA mirror, designed by Ferruccio Laviani, is born from a pure and continuous form, capable of transforming into an expressive element through matter. The technology of recycled PMMA molding allows the surface to be worked as a true light project: variations in thickness, reflections, and depth build a frame that is never static but in constant dialogue with the space. The sign is essential, yet the result is rich and vibrant. The shape wraps and guides the gaze toward the center, highlighting what it reflects: the image thus becomes the heart of the project, framed by a ring that amplifies its presence and perception.
