SF Collection

The SF collection stands as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship inherent in working with Carrara white marble—a material celebrated for its beauty and historical significance. Each piece in this collection is meticulously crafted from single blocks of this luxurious stone, highlighting the paradox of marble’s innate rigidity. Through careful design and execution, the collection embodies the impossibility of bending marble, creating an enchanting illusion that captivates the senses. At first glance, the shapes of each object in the SF collection may appear deceptively simple, yet this intentional simplicity is profoundly meaningful. The design philosophy behind each piece revolves around achieving an unparalleled elegance and subtlety, stripping away unnecessary embellishments to allow the beauty of the marble itself to take center stage. The artisans, skilled in the traditional techniques of Northern Italy, have infused each item with their expertise, ensuring that the marble is not only hollowed and carved with precision but also hand-finished to perfection. The trompe l'oeil effect plays a crucial role in the collection's allure. The art of creating this illusion grants these marble pieces a dynamic quality, prompting viewers to reconsider their perceptions of the material. The weight and solidity of marble juxtapose with the seemingly fluid, airy shapes designed to evoke a sense of movement and grace—qualities often associated with softer, more malleable materials. In SF, the dichotomy between the physical properties of marble and the artistic vision to create the illusion of flexibility culminates in a collection that is not only visually arresting but also conceptually profound. Each piece serves as a conversation starter, inviting reflections on beauty, design, and the boundaries of materiality. Whether as individual statement pieces or as a cohesive ensemble, the SF collection redefines the potential of marble, urging us to embrace the delicate balance between strength and elegance.
