Minimalist More Lighting
MINIMALIST STYLE
A revival in the popularity of authentic Minimalist furniture is rooted in history while reflecting the needs and tastes of the 21st century. Designer Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s aphorism that “less is more” influenced the evolution of 20th-century interiors with an emphasis on function and order. This was a shift from the 19th century, with its lavish Victorian decorating, and was spread around the world through design styles including Bauhaus and brutalism.
Yet Minimalism was present in furniture design long before the clean lines of modernism, such as in the simple and elegant utility of Shaker furniture. Although the Minimalist art movement of the 1960s and ’70s had little crossover with furniture design, artist Donald Judd was inspired by the Shakers in creating his own spare daybeds and tables from sturdy wood. (Judd, whose advocacy of symmetry also informed his architectural projects, furnished his Manhattan loft with unassuming but poetic works by iconic modernist designers such as Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto.)
Understatement rather than ornamentation and open space instead of clutter are central themes for a Minimalist living room and bedroom. As opposed to Maximalism, the focus for Minimalist furniture and decor is on simplicity and considering the design and purpose of every object.
Furnishings are usually made in neutral or monochrome colors and pared down to their essentials — think nesting coffee tables, sectional sofas and accent pieces such as ottomans. And Minimalist ceramics can help achieve a decor that is both timeless and of the moment. The organic textures and personalization of handmade craftsmanship associated with these works have served as a sort of anti-Internet to screen-weary decorators. That said, while the thoughtful ergonomics of Scandinavian modern furniture, with its handcrafted teak frames, are at home in Minimalist spaces, so are the quietly striking pieces by Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa that employ industrial materials like stainless steel, aluminum and plastic.
Minimalist furniture is not for making flashy statements; it boasts subdued appeal and excels at harmonizing with any room. And, as it encompasses many different movements and eras of design, it also never goes out of style, owing to its tasteful refinement.

Hiding such a powerful light inside wasn't easy: the challenges were represented by the small thickness of the object and the light emission that, according to my vision, had to be released both upwards and downwards.
The effort has been worthwhile and the result is poetic: stone has never seemed so light!

But, I wanted it strongly,
I dreamed of being able to see a piece of marble, suspended like a sculpture, and that it could secretly illuminate my work area.
It wasn't easy, hiding so much light inside,
to be released both above and below.
Even bringing the marble to less than a centimeter/a inch was not easy,
but the result is poetic, suspended, not heavy, non-invasive, and rich in details, full of depth and nuances,
Structure composed of a thin square in marble, double emission of LED light, suspension with steel wires.
A lamp with an essential geometry that enhances the quality of handcrafted marble and the high technology of the LED lighting system.
An object that does not invade the environment but furnishes it with class, thanks also to an enveloping and discreet light that guarantees a high visual comfort.
