29 Apr Eidos Stone Screen
The Eidos preview continues with another iconic element, the stone screen.
The characteristic stone screen designed by Kensaku Oshiro takes up the challenge of creating a divider in stone that makes the matter light, allowing the light to pass through it and to play with it. An extreme approach in treating the material, without distorting it.
In the designer’s vision, the visual lightness can’t be separated from having a complete stone element. As usually happens, this requested a huge work for lightening and reinforcements that are hidden inside the screen. The hollowed panel are made with travertine thicks that are shaped, carved, to place the reinforcing steell, and then they are glued and hollowed to create the light transparency effect. The self-supporting structure is fixed with an efficient joint system that keeps it firmly on the elegant brushed steel base.
An element where the stone discovers new shapes and a never-seen lightness, without losing its own spirit.
The complete concept and collection will be unveiled in September, during the official launch, which will come with the publication of a monothematic book dedicated to Eidos, in which Kensaku will tell us his vision with evocative words and images.
In the meanwhile, the Eidos preview will be displayed in Milan, at Listone Giordano Arena. The space is visitable only by appointment.
