Ponte(m)

DESIGNER: Riccardo Blumer | Matteo Borghi
COMPANY: Nicodemo Marmi
MATERIALS: Carrara marble | Stainless steel

We have always imagined a table that had a long, thin and "light" lithic blade that can support loads and functions. Inspired by the world of construction structures such as beams and bridges, we worked on the exaggeration of the physical abilities of the stone, trying to remove all the quantities not necessary to hold it. Combining this effort with the type of processing and construction of the object, we arrived at a univocal stage in which "we cannot do otherwise" ... aesthetics is achieved. A 8mm thick marble top cooperates together with a stainless steel supporting structure to which a light "mount" has been applied to increase its strength. Four legs of the same material guarantee support.
