IRIS

I was mainly concerned with the design of finishing elements inserted into the houses I designed.

  • Since then, I've begun to think about objects that belong to the world of living, and I no longer see them as separate elements. I don't consider them complements, but essences that are part of a complex world: that of living.
    However, creating design objects requires dealing with the world of mass production; therefore, projects must be refined to be sold and inserted into different worlds, into other ways of living.
    However, I believe that even a single chair can express the meaning of living, that profound meaning I try to give to the homes I design. For me, a chair expresses the desire to sit, and it must not be so comfortable that we forget that simplicity represents a higher state of beauty, because beauty is not an end in itself, but belongs to a larger world of which love and harmony are part.
    I think understanding and being able to reflect on abundance and the superfluous is a good way to begin
    to meditate on the phenomena of life; A chair, in the simplicity of its lines and materials, transcends form only when it reaches the essence for which it was created.
