under

A collection of accessories designed for Marsotto edizioni, an Italian marble brand specialising in marble furniture. The collection consists of small and large fruit bowls and vases that are made up of roundish vessels fixed on flat and smooth square pedestals. The pedestal is shaped to softly emerge from the surface of the vessel, which allows the presence of the pedestal to be felt as if it is otherwise hidden underneath. Because of this, the name “under” was given.
A design that gives the impression of “softness” and “warmth” to marble stone in contrast to the stereotype image of “solidity and coldness”.
