Paolo Pallucco Acquariano Bed Structure in Beechwood and Steel 1980s Italy

About the Item

Acquariano bed structure with frame and slats in beech wood, headboard and legs in black painted steel. Designed by Paolo Pallucco and produced by Pallucco in the 1980s. Pallucco, moving away from the dominant styles, has always experimented with new solutions by searching for particular shapes and objects with strong aesthetic contents, drawing on different cultural sources and allowing himself to be contaminated by them. "It takes the eyes of a sailor to see the shore beyond the horizon"... these are the eyes with which Pallucco has traveled the streets of design since the 80s, identifying and choosing not what is simple fashion, but what representing the style trend. A careful, cultured and non-conformist approach, which has allowed the company to establish itself on the international scene since its foundation. Proof of this are the installations in the spaces of the Mattatoio in Milan (1987 / 1988 / 1989) and the collaborations with Peter Lindbergh and Rei Kawakubo. Rigor and urban minimalism are the cornerstones of Pallucco in the 1990s under the artistic direction of Hannes Wettstein, who designed one of his masterpieces for the company, the Continua bookcase, bringing the concept of technology to the forefront of the design world as new form beyond aesthetics. The 2000s are dedicated to decoration. The artistic direction of Jurgen Bey shifts Pallucco's attention to new forms and new formal languages. At the same time, the group of designers who produce and experiment with new solutions expands, exploring the frontiers of contemporary design with the freedom of expression that is the most authentic signature of the Pallucco style. Hannes Wettstein, Jean Nouvel, Tom Dixon, Jaime Hayón, Christian Deuber, Sergio Calatroni, Denis Santachiara, Kazuhiro Yamanaka, Enrico Franzolini, Lagranja Design, Susanne Philippson, Matalie Crasset, Constance Guisset, Brian Rasmussen, Luciano Bertoncini create exclusive pieces for Pallucco that they mark the style of a laboratory of ideas where the trends of multicultural design are compared. The current production is a fusion of contemporary, historical and timeless objects. The Fortuny lamp by Mariano Fortuny, the visionary masterpiece of the early twentieth century, best represents its spirit. Pallucco has a history with roots in a prestigious past that projects itself into a future of research and exploration.

1980s Green Canopy Bed and Chest of Drawers Dark Lacquer for Sormani, Italy

By Davide Pizzigoni & Manolo De Giorgi, Sormani, Marco Comolli

Located in Arosio, IT

Canopy bed An unusual canopy bed, named Fauno, manufactured by Sormani in very dark green (almost black) glossy lacquer, with 4 columns in grey nextel and a metal canopy in light apple green. The bed has multifunctional structures all around: two trays that work as night tables, one front tray that works as further support (for a TV-screen, for instance), and a back shelf of 17cm (6" 11/16) for your favorite books. All "trays" are adjustable as seen in pictures and can be also adjusted in height. The bed includes a wooden bed slat (see picture) with a metal frame, and a provisional mattress, while you buy your own favorite. Mattress size should be cm 160x200x20-25 (63 in × 79 in x ca. 9" 27/32). Size of bed: H 225 x W 175 x D 235 cm (7' 4" 37/64 x 5' 8" 57/64 x 7' 8" 33/64) Size of trays: cm 47 x 32 (1' 6" 1/2 x 1' 19/32). Height of bed (without mattress) cm 40 (1' 3" 3/4) Commode Chest of drawers in very dark green lacquer (the famous 20-gloss silky mat lacquer of Sormani) with six spacious drawers: two in elegant salmon lacquer, standing out with a colorful touch and four in dark green. Please note the skillful shape of each drawer front: a triangular shape with a recessed, convex upper part. In its simplicity, a real work of craftsmanship for an Industrial manufacturer such as Sormani of Arosio, Italy. Size of commode: cm H 78 W 160 D 52 (H 2' 6" 45/64 x W 5' 2" 63/64 x D 1' 8" 15/32) Perfect for the entrance or the bedroom of a sleek city apartment or even for a contemporary mountain hut. The piece is in very good conditions. Just normal wear and tear in some parts. Davide Pizzigoni...
