Wandel by Kooij

Crafted by Kooij, where Dirk van der Kooij and his team transform waste materials into timeless pieces, the Wandel bowl is extruded from buttery recycled plastic. Its meandering lines melt together to form a shallow, open basin. Each bowl is a unique creation, with colour gradations that evolve according to the recycled plastic’s past life. The result is a bowl that ranges from smooth to variegated hues, making every piece distinct. The Wandel bowl is more than just a functional item; it’s also a playful tabletop sculpture and a generous fruit bowl. The bowl’s pattern and shape are defined by a single, gently warmed extruded line, showcasing the delicate union of machine precision and artisanal craft.

Oksýs chaise longue by Pininfarina

Oksýs marks the debut of Pininfarina’s collectible design ventures, conceived by Marco Becucci from the company’s architecture team. This intriguing piece embodies a harmony of contrasts, blending artificial and natural elements, man and nature, in seamless logic. Crafted from a single aluminium casting, the upper part of Oksýs is smooth and refined, echoing the quintessential forms of car design, while the lower part is rough and powerful, reminiscent of a rock. This limited-edition piece, produced in a series of three, is available exclusively at Galleria Rossana Orlandi.
