About the Item
Fractus coffee table by Federico Fontanella
Dimensions: W 130 x D 62 x H 40 cm
Materials: brass, iron, marble
Federico Fontanella is the founder of Milan based design studio, Federico Fontanella Studio. He is constantly inspired by his curiosity and small everyday problems. Federico is also drawn by abandoned objects and is always looking for a way to retrieve them and give them a new life. “One day, while inspecting a building site, I found a slab of green Alpine marble, broken in half, abandoned to the ravages of time. It was a pity that such a beautiful and refined object could be considered as no longer usable. At the same time the type of fracture really inspired me: the slab could be saved and given a new life to, making a small table with the pieces.” The peculiarity of this process is that the iron structure is built based on what was available at the time, and therefore a custom-made structure, especially for the marble slabs salvaged.
Like the worn marble, the structure should have a rough finish, as should the brass details applied under the top, which bear the name of the product and the year it was made. The result is a "rough" coffee table made up of two separate elements which, however, always need to be close together in order to communicate what they once represented as united.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
