EMPTY

by SORAYA PLA

Empty is inspired by the grandeur of buildings noted not for their height, but for the distance that separates them from the rest. thusgenerating a void that impresses and lends majesty.

This is how EMPTY was created, working with hollowed-out, mutually separated spaces of different sizes to achieve an effect of "silence" and creating immaterial voids that have their own volume and that complement the solid_ volume by means of cuts and small ascending and descending "ramps''. This allows a void in perpetual! flight.

Through its geometric voids, the shadow emerges: without corporeality, transparent, timeless.

Our panels are supplied without their finishes, with the colour of their base and recycled parti­cles, making them very easy to assemble and putty.

The subsequent co!our application can be done simply by roller or spray to match the rest of the colours of the architectural space, creating endless colour and texture options.

Soraya Pla graduated in design at EASD Escuela de Arte y Superior de Diseño in Valencia in 2000.

After a relevant career in fashion designing for well-known firms and creating her own, she founded her integral design studio that allows her to show her holistic way of working. Her story is that of her need to create emotional design concepts, respecting above all the past, to which she has given great importance since her beginnings and for which she feels a real attraction, thus creating a very particular language.

Soraya Pla currently breathes creativity in a multitude of projects. Curious about everything around her, her work is based on observation and research, always exploring the potential of forms and creating links between designer, artisan and client, enhancing the emotional. Her passion is to bring maximum added value to her projects through her ability to improve the lives of her clients.

Simple, pragmatic and result-oriented, Soraya Pla leads her design studio with a high sense of involvement with her clients.

The repetition of modules of different lengths gives rise to a series of levels and geometric frets useful for interior designers and architects to visually break up vertical surfaces; from the configuration of the three different panels, it is therefore possible to obtain boiserie, ceiling cornices and skirting boards with a rational and contemporary language, working on aesthetics that could be elegant and sober.

Following the matrix, the panels can all be equally cut and vertically joined in continuity.

The name "Crescendo" indicates a collection in progress that can decrease or increase in complexity, and which pursues a type of sus­tainability not only linked to the material, also to aesthetics. A balanced aesthetic based on a timeless sign - the line - made to last beyond fashion.

LUCA PEVERE

After graduating and training in Milan, in 2006 he moved back to his region, Friuli Venezia Giulia, where, in the historic fortress-city of Palmanova he founded the “LucidiPevere” design studio together with Paolo Lucidi.

Since 2021 he has also been working as a freelancer, personally following some of the most prestigious brands in the furniture industry such as Agape, Arflex JP, Danao Living, De Padova, Driade, Foscarini, Gebrüder Thonet Vienna, Hem, Kristalia, Ligne Roset, Living Divani, Porro, Roda, Stylex, Zanotta, and many others.

His origins – Friuli Venezia Giulia is a borderland and historical crossroads of cultures – made him a designer particularly open to the concept of diversity, often intended as a quest for all the possible design meeting points between form, archetype, materials, and technologies. He strongly believes in human relationships and long-lasting products, for which he is constantly looking for a “pragmatic poetics” able to balance the corporate identity with the key element of the project.

Over the years he has taught and held lectures in several design faculties as well as collaborated with a lot of international companies considered benchmarks in various sectors, including furniture, lighting, bathroom, and home accessories. Some of his creations have received awards and recognitions – such as Designpreis Deutschland, Red Dot Design Award, IF Design Award, Good Design and two “Golden Compass” Honorable Mentions – and are now exhibited in the most important international museums.

AQUA

by ARIK LEVY

"Aqua takes the form of its con­tainer, this substile surface movement are fresh memories of a sightlessness and floata­tion, impact and reaction.

Closing your eyes and having the palm of your hand slide and glide over this surface will evoke and provoke endlessness of expressions.

One can almost dive into it with the eternal quest of finding what is behind."

ARIK LEVY

"Creation is an uncontrolled muscle" according to Arik Levy (born 1963).

Artist, technician, photographer, designer, video artist, Levy's skills are multi–disciplinary and his work can be seen in prestigious galleries and museums worldwide. Best known publicly for his sculptures – such as his signature Rock pieces –, his installations, limited editions and design, Levy nevertheless feels "The world is about people, not objects."

Hailing originally from Israel and moving to Europe after his first participation in a group sculpture exhibition in Tel–Aviv in 1988, Levy currently works in his studio in Paris.

His formation was unconventional where surfing, as well as his art and graphic design studio, took up much of his time back home. Following studies at the Art Center Europe in Switzerland he gained a distinction in Industrial Design in 1991.

After a stint in Japan where he consolidated his ideas producing products and pieces for exhibitions, Levy returned to Europe where he contributed his artistry to another field – contemporary dance and opera by way of set design.

The creation of his firm then meant a foray back to his first love, art and industrial design, as well as other branches of his talents. Respected for his furniture and light designs on all continents, Levy also creates hi–tech clothing lines and accessories for firms in the Far East.

Considering himself now more of a "feeling" artist, Arik Levy continues to contribute substantially to our interior and exterior milieu, his work including public sculpture, as well as complete environments that can be adapted for multi use. "Life is a system of signs and symbols," he says, "where nothing is quite as it seems."
