Post-modern Birdhouse in the style of Aldo Rossi, Milano Series
About the Item
Crafted from painted wood, this architectural birdhouse sports a carefully chosen color palette that is both subtle and elegant, reflective of its time. It boasts a geometric cubic body, with a flat facade and crisp, clean lines that echo the post-modern preference for stark, defined shapes. The structure's firm base enhances the sculpture's visual impact.
The copper roof, reminiscent of the architectural influences of Aldo Rossi, climbs gracefully to a pointed apex and is adorned with a triangular flag. The metallic luster of copper is destined to develop a rich patina over time.
In tribute to Aldo Rossi, the birdhouse's architectural form, with its essential geometric shapes, carries the spirit of his design philosophy. The tapering copper roof and the conceptual use of elements are evocative of Rossi's distinctive approach to architecture.
Labelled "Milano series" on the base.

"Inspired by the Flamingo side-table by Michele de Lucchi for Memphis 1984.The influence of the Memphis and Studio Alchimia are touchstone for me. Movements misunderstood, hated, incomprehensible, to most my peers, cause of consternation, passion and debate on what is supposed to be good taste. Still so pregnant with life and vibrancy, yet aloof to humans in 2020. Less original more of a hommage." J Sargenti Made of inpainted sandpaper and somber pattern painted wood. 8” x 5” x 6” The Flamingo birdhouse is a brilliant re-interpretation of the landmark Memphis Group Flamingo side table designed by Michele de Lucchi. Memphis creations have now crossed time, generations and fashions to become pinacle events in design history and art, still breathing creative freedom and radicalism into today’s design creations. Called the Flamingo side table, Michele de Lucchi’s icon has been entirely remodeled by Jason Sargenti who made it stand in the manner of a Z-shaped Flamingo silhouette. All the original elements of the Memphis Flamingo...Category
