Un Attimo is a collection of geometric trays created by designer Konstantin Grcic for Serafino Zani, a brand renowned for its steel work combined with innovative production techniques. Focused on the smallest of details, the Zani family applies its craftsmanship to the design of beautiful, high-quality objects. Konstantin Grcic creates everyday accessories and kitchen utensils in a minimalist, unusual form. Made from a sheet of steel, these trays are designed like origami pieces. Using state-of-the-art technology, the sheets are laser-cut then folded at several angles, playing on the different reflections created by the material. Un Attimo trays are a visual feast, an ideal addition to your home and a refined gift idea.
Born in Munich, Germany, in 1965, Konstantin Grcic trained as a cabinetmaker at Parnham College, Dorset, before studying industrial design at the Royal College of Art in London. From 1990 to 1991 he worked in Jasper Morrison's studio in London. In 1991, he set up his own structure in Munich, "Konstantin Grcic Industrial Design", which served as both his workshop and studio. Since then, he has been designing furniture, objects and lamps for renowned manufacturers such as Magis and Flos. An adept of a functionalism that is "contemporary, feasible and concrete", his creations are not simply minimalist, but radical, pure, direct and simple, while never repeating themselves. With the publisher Plank, Konstantin Grcic is experimenting with cantilever seating and has created Miura, a stackable bar stool with sharp lines.
