Rafael

by Paola Navone

Rafael is a collection with an unusual appearance and strong character, influenced by the versatility and transience of nature. The sturdy structure in brushed teak, with metal staples that add a touch of craftsmanship, meets the textures and shades of the cushions, in a compositional dialogue in which the tables in white marble or stone glazed in the color of the sea are inserted. Fine artisan crafting of teak, marble and lava stone in fact combines with the sophisticated range of textile colours, again designed by Paola Navone, that enhance the padded furniture.

All the elements can be used together or stand-alone. The alternating slats that make up the backrests bring alive the unusual original hexagonal profiles of the frame, in the new distressed natural teak finish.

A dimensional rhythm that lends movement and visual aperture, lending these furnishings dynamism and ‘air’.

Paola Navone

Straightforward, a dreamer and eclectic: her mind and soul are a combination of flavours and colours of the South of the world - known, loved and lived - together with the taste and forms of the West, rich in traditions, open and continuously in movement.  All of this produces her untiring curiosity in her research for matters and materials, forms and structures. In her research for the present, the past and the future.
