Selling: Polka Dots Cupboard, Twist Coat Stand, Ripples Bench
- POLKA DOTS CUPBOARD. In designing Polka Dots, Toyo Ito placed multiple methacrylate, circular inserts in apparent disarray on the doors, in stark contrast to the strict and minimalist structures of this piece of furniture. This graphic idea is reminiscent of Tokyo's Za-Koenji theatre, also designed by the great architect. The inserts represent, as the name itself indicates, a multitude of dots that seem to fly gently upwards and that, upon turning the interior lights on, create a magical play of lights and shadows.

- TWIST COAT STAND. The eight beech slats in its structure bend and twist as if they were dancing. Their elastic tension is essential to provide the hanger with excellent form and stability. Twist responds to a simple yet important observation: hangers usually vanish when you hang your coats or clothing. However, Twist does not disappear. Conversely, it is emphasized as only its central part is covered. Clothing can be hung on hooks stuck in the slats allowing the upper part of Twist, a beautiful wood flower, to emerge in all its elegance.

- RIPPLES BENCH. Ripples, winner of the 2004 Compasso d'Oro, is made of a laminated composite of five different solid woods. Slide your hand along the surface to enjoy the seamless transitions between walnut, mahogany, cherry, oak, and ash. This enveloping seat, carved with mastery, is hand-finished to produce an elegant polychromatic effect arising from the ductility of the wood. A true icon of international design, Ripples is a bench suitable for home users, commercial environments, and public spaces.
