Elmo set of white bowls by Kazuhide Takahama Paradisoterrestre Edition
About the Item
Designed in 1984 - Paradisoterrestre Edition 2017
Material: enameled pottery.
Colours: white; also available in grey or blue.
In the early 80s Mario Lispi organized an exhibition dedicated to the ceramics art and suggested to his friend Kazuhide Takahama to design a work.
Although the Japanese architect had used this kind of material for the first time, his work Elmo – of great impact – was unexpectedly the most beautiful of the show. His fairy-tale work, a sublime abstract fusion with a huge aesthetic strength tells the ancient Eastern concept of containers – one inside the other – and also evoking Vikings’ helmets magical shapes.
Signed by Takahama, it is produced in a limited edition of 12 for each colour.

Kazuhide Takahama
Kazuhide Takahama was a Japanese designer born in Miyazaki, Japan. After graduating from the Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1953, Takahama designed the Japanese Pavilion for the Milan Triennale. There he met Dino Gavina, and over the next decade, Takahama designed several pieces for Gavina. Later, he also collaborated with B&B Italia, Simon and Knoll, just to name a few. His designs are clear in line and shape and have a high-quality design. With the functionalist approach to modernism, he designed with a Japanese sense of material and aesthetics conveniently combined with Western elements.
