Inspired by the teak gratings traditionally used in yachting to facilitate the flow of water, Brazilian architect Marcio Kogan has designed Quadrado for Minotti, a collection specifically conceived for outdoor use. In this armchair version, the teak structure, decorated with light bronze metallic details, has straight armrests and accommodates back and seat cushions. Inspired by the modular volumes of Japanese metabolic architecture of the fifties and sixties, Minotti's Quadrado is an ideal system for furnishing large open-air spaces, immersing oneself in nature and relaxing.
Two minds, one aspiration, one desire. The desire to create, transform and interpret. A common passion: glass. The result: the creation of a laboratory of ideas. That was back in 1955. Pierangelo Gallotti and Luigi Radice founded an artistic space dedicated to glass decoration. Tradition and innovation blended together to create small-scale, precious production. Light fixtures, furniture, and mirrors were the first products to be made. All parts were unique and made exclusively by hand. Founders Luigi Radice and Piarangelo Gallotti shared the company's origins and artisanal philosophy: Growing, innovating, researching.
