The Form
Alata Celesti is a vertical spatial intervention in mirror-polished stainless steel. Defined by a razor-sharp aerodynamic rupture, the form captures a kinetic impulse at the apex of its ascent. Part of the Geometra collection, the sculpture represents a pristine geometric volume subjected to extreme mathematical torque—a study in "deformed perfection" that strips away all extraneous detail to reveal a weightless, soaring silhouette.
The Utility
Engineered for high-impact transition spaces, Alata Celesti features a narrow footprint and significant verticality. It serves as a strategic architectural anchor for entry foyers, stairwell landings, or the termination of a gallery corridor, providing a sense of upward momentum without overwhelming the functional floor plan.
Light & Integration
The hyper-reflective, hand-polished surface acts as a "chameleon" in the interior, dissolving the mass of the metal by absorbing and re-projecting the surrounding architecture and ambient light. This ensures the piece integrates seamlessly into any color palette, shifting its character as the viewer moves or the lighting conditions change.
