GUFRAMINI Pratone by Ceretti, Derossi & Rosso - 1stdibs New York
By Gufram Furniture, Riccardo Rosso, Piero Derossi and Giorgio Ceretti
Located in La Morra, Cuneo
The mini Pratone® plays with the juxtaposition of a "large-small" proportion by reducing to 7/8 the giant Pratone that was designed in 1972 by Ceretti, Derossi, and Rosso, and exhibited that year at the MoMA as part of the Italy: The New Domestic Landscape exhibition. Just like the original version, the base of the "mini" sculpture shows the writing ‘Pratone’ on one of the sides, and 42 soft stems stretching in different directions complete the radical look of this little icon.
As if in a fairy tale, the Gufram icons have become smaller and have now turned into Guframini®! The most radical Italian design...

GUFRAMINI Miniature Cactus by Drocco & Mello - 1stdibs New York
By Guido Drocco and Franco Mello, Gufram Furniture
Located in La Morra, Cuneo
The miniature Cactus, one of the radical design symbols par excellence. Gufram offers its fans a version identical to the original designed by Drocco and Mello in 1972. The mini mold is perfectly identical to the full-scale design and shows 2165 dimpled areas that decorate the stem and the arms of this otherworldly coat rack.

Little Beaver by Frank O. Gehry for Edition Vitra Design Museum
By Frank Gehry, Vitra
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The story goes that architect Frank Gehry noticed a pile of corrugated cardboard outside his office, a material he preferred for his architectural models, and he began to glue laminated pieces together and carve them with a hand saw and pocket knife to create small cardboard sculptures. In 1972, he introduced a series of cardboard furniture under the name, "Easy Edges".
