Made of two monolithic blocks sliding on one other, the Scultura low table comes from the famous series ‘Plurimi’ (1970-1982). The name is intended as a tribute to the artist Emilio Vedova. ‘Metamorphic’ pieces of furniture with volumes that have been designed to play with the evolutionary possibilities of a single form, and to vary in space, in a continuous metamorphosis with light and the environment. This furniture also meets practical needs. It is characterized by the ease of the rapid and unexpected changes it facilitates, in addition to the multiplicity of uses.
