为意大利德萨尔托设计的系列家具,该品牌以金属家具闻名。凳子的一部分被翻了起来,变成了靠背。两根金属杆互相缠绕成为一个衣架。我们将桌面的边缘弯曲,像布料一样覆盖在框架的边缘,这样桌面就可以像托盘一样被拿起来。通过在金属片和金属棒上添加翻转、弯曲和包裹的细节,使这种坚硬的金属材料获得了新的功能以及轻、灵活的感觉,就像金属变成了纸或布一样。

A furniture collection designed for Italy’s Desalto, known for their metal furniture. A section of the bench has flipped up and turned into the backrest. Poles wrap around each other to become a coat stand. We bent a tabletop’s edges to attach onto the frame like cloth draping over the frame’s edges, so that the tabletop can be picked up like a tray. By adding flipped, bent and wrapped details to metal sheets and rods, the ordinarily hard material gains new functionality and a light, flexible feel, as though the metal has become paper or cloth.
