G Collection

The G Collection is an exquisite assortment of furniture and sculptures that utilize resin in innovative and exciting ways. To fully appreciate this collection, it’s essential to explore two distinct yet interconnected aspects: its aesthetic foundation and the intricate production process behind each piece. Inspired by the architectural genius of Carlo Scarpa, who exhibited a mastery of simple geometric lines and the interaction between positive and negative spaces, the G Collection also pays homage to the earlier works of Frank Lloyd Wright, whose use of similar forms is evident in structures like the door of the Kiva building at Taliesin in Arizona, designed around 1939.

Aesthetic Perspective

At the core of the G Collection is a commitment to pure, simple lines and precise 90-degree angles. The initial piece, the GSD console, set the tone for the entire collection, establishing a design language that prioritizes clarity and minimalism. Resin, as a chosen medium, offers remarkable qualities that complement this aesthetic. It allows for sharp angles and well-defined shapes, and its capacity to refract and reflect light transforms how the pieces appear based on their environment. The 90 degree angles and the thin sections of resin are particularly captivating, with their translucent nature creating an enchanting interplay between light and form. As light filters through the material, the resin can shift dramatically in appearance—from a deep dark shade to a vibrant, luminous one—giving each piece a dynamic quality that feels both organic and alive. While resin can n ot be considered a natural material, like stone or wood for example, it possesses a distinctly natural ambiance when light interacts with it. This phenomenon embodies the collection's commitment to a timeless elegance, inviting viewers to not only appreciate the design but to also engage with how each piece transforms under different lighting conditions. The aesthetics of the G Collection are not merely about visual appeal; they also invite tactile engagement. The polished surfaces of the resin pieces offer a clinical smoothness, while also conveying warmth and approachability. This inviting nature encourages touch and interaction, allowing viewers to experience the collection not just visually, but physically as well. The understated yet impactful aesthetic of the G Collection makes it a delightful addition to various settings, embodying a balance of sophistication and functionality.

Production Process

The production of the G Collection is a meticulous, time-consuming and complex endeavor, undertaken by skilled artisans in the Netherlands. The artisans’ commitment to quality and precision in every step of production reflects the intrinsic value of the G Collection, turning each item into a work of art. In conclusion, the G Collection represents a profound exploration of light, form, and material, beautifully encapsulated in the partnership of aesthetic vision and skilled craftsmanship. It invites those who encounter it to appreciate both its artistic sensibilities and the intricate processes that breathe life into its design.
