De Castelli
Faithful to its decision to reinstate the special role of metal in design and experimentation De Castelli infuses artisan ideas and workmanship into industrial processes leading to entirely original results. The encounter with design inspires an approach to materials founded upon respect for their potential be it hidden or obvious which emerges slowly in a collection of pieces that despite being part of a series remain unique. Unique not only for the hand that has created them but also for the singular cultural path that focuses on the aesthetic (and not just practical) value of the primordial material with which De Castelli shapes living spaces. Exclusively for Boffi| De Padova, Piero Lissoni focuses on DeErosion, the unique finishing designed by De Castelli thanks to a special technique of monitored erosion that creates nature-like textures, inspired to the passing of time. The handmade process leads to final results that can change in homogeneity and color, confirming the uniqueness of each piece.
