Salone del Mobile 2008 - Space

16.04.08

Space - Concept by Piero Lissoni

A box of multiple materials alternating between large glass surfaces, thick walls and light mobile surfaces, contains the Porro universe 2008.
A space to live, sleep, work seamlessly, where rigid functional divisions into traditional environments are destroyed, leaving space for a harmonious whole that can be managed in a different way every day, favouring the hybrid and mutable lifestyles typical of the people of today.
A few calibrated insertions of colour, from the brightness of red to the delicacy of sky blue, to the density of grey, are softened in an environment that is prevalently black, which concentrates on primary forms, embellished by the far from commonplace use of materials such as wood, stone, glass, wicker, stainless steel, plastic and leather, which freely swap around their mutual positions in the products to overturn consolidated images and pave the way for new uses.
