Description
Stanza Dello Scirocco is a sculptural collection created by Mario Trimarchi, architect of the "hands-free" generation, for the famous Italian brand Alessi. Made from a cut and folded sheet of steel, these baskets are incredibly graphic and airy, and stand out for their composition and the play of light and shadow they create. The Stanza Dello Scirocco is inspired by the atmosphere of a magical place: the room found in Sicilian country houses, where people take refuge from the stifling heat until the sirocco dies down. It's a windowless room where the only thing to do is listen to the wind blowing outside. The centrepiece and fruit basket are available in stainless steel or coloured with epoxy resin, to decorate a dining room table or kitchen worktop.
In 1921, Giovanni Alessi founded the Italian company Alessi. Since 1929, the company has focussed on producing nickel- or silver-plated copper tableware. When Carlo Alessi, Giovanni's son, was appointed design director in 1935, handcrafting methods were replaced by industrial manufacturing. In 1955, the company began collaborating with world-renowned architects and designers such as Richard Sapper, Ettore Sottsass, and later, Philippe Starck and Marcel Wanders. Alessi makes design accessible by focussing on useful, humorous and visually appealing home accessories. Most of its products have become design classics that are sold and exhibited around the world.
