NATURE AS THE ORIGINAL DESIGNER
IN A WORLD INCREASINGLY SHAPED BY STRAIGHT LINES, GRIDS, AND ANGLES, THIS FURNITURE RECLAIMS THE LANGUAGE OF NATURE: CURVES, ASYMMETRY, AND FLOW. THESE SCULPTED OAK PIECES ARE NOT JUST FUNCTIONAL OBJECTS, THEY ARE A RETURN TO THE PRIMAL ELEGANCE OF THE FOREST, WHERE NOTHING GROWS IN RIGHT ANGLES, YET EVERYTHING FITS PERFECTLY.
EACH PIECE FOLLOWS THE QUIET LOGIC OF NATURAL GROWTH, THE GRAIN AND THE WAY A BRANCH BENDS TOWARD THE LIGHT. THE SWELL OF A HILLSIDE, OR THE SOFT CONTOUR OF A RIVER STONE WORN SMOOTH OVER CENTURIES. BY CARVING OAK (A TREE KNOWN FOR ITS STRENGTH AND DEEP SYMBOLISM) INTO SOFT, ORGANIC FORMS, WE ARE HONORING BOTH THE MATERIAL AND ITS ORIGIN.
THIS IS FURNITURE THAT DOESN’T IMPOSE, IT ADAPTS. IT DOESN’T SHOUT, IT WHISPERS. IT INVITES TOUCH, EMOTION, AND CONNECTION. THESE ROUNDED SHAPES ECHO THE HUMAN FORM, ENCOURAGING COMFORT AND A SENSE OF BE¬LONGING. IN A WAY, THEY BRING THE FOREST BACK INTO THE HOME, NOT AS A RELIC, BUT AS A LIVING PRESENCE.
THE EXHBITION WILL SHOW AN EXCLUSIVE SERIES OF DOLCE PIECES BY FRANCESCO BALZANO DECLINED IN RARE MARBLES.
