034 Esquel
Inspired by the beauty of our universe and named for the famous meteorite, ‘Esquel’ represents the intersection of two fundamental geometric forms. A rough exterior contrasts a smooth, polished core. The patent-pending processes used allows the creation of customizable forms for a variety of furniture typologies – bench, table, chair, or sofa. Each piece will be as warm or cool to the touch as desired and can be situated indoors or out.

Ispirato dalla bellezza del nostro universo, 'Esquel', prende il nome dal famoso meteorite e rappresenta l'intersezione di due forme geometriche fondamentali. Alla superficie rugosa esterna si contrappone un interno liscio e lucido. Un processo produttivo brevettato permette la creazione di forme complesse e la creazione di elementi d‘arredo come panchine, tavoli, sedute, divano, ecc. Ogni elemento potrà essere tanto caldo che freddo al tatto quanto desiderato e potrà essere collocato sia in spazi interni che esterni.

Sa surface extérieure rugueuse contraste avec un noyau lisse et poli. Les procédés de brevetage utilisés permettent à partir de cette forme la création d’une variété de typologies de meubles — banc, table, chaise, ou canapé. Chaque pièce sera aussi chaude ou froide au toucher que souhaitée et peut être située dehors ou dedans.
