Collection of taps and fitting in steel.
Mixing taps with a straight jet of water and no aerator evoke something natural, like water flowing in all its transparency and natural consistency. The beauty of this series lies in having conceived it without gimmicks, but as simple taps, of average dimensions, that can be installed on any washbasin to immediately enhance any style of bathroom.

A modular illumination system for T5 fluorescent lamps. Lamp body in anodized extruded aluminum, details and finish in steel painted with metallic paint or mica-based red.
In addition to the meticulous attention the designer paid to details, the main objective was to achieve an extraordinarily esthetic structure in only 56 mm of thickness with four T5 light bulbs that allow the fixture to be rated as a dual emission system for all practical purposes. It is an extremely technical product, but at the same time attractive and relaxing thanks to the introduction of chromatic elements on the top and the use of a luminous band to generate a particular effect on the lower surface of the structure.

Vase in stainless steel 18/10.
After participating on the “Tea & Coffee Towers” project, the working relationship with Zaha Hadid intensified, and the latest addition to Alessi’s collection is this sculpture-esque vase. Its outline slices through space with the force of an arctic crevasse. The twisted walls accentuate the verticality and the tension in the form is embodied in a perfect composition. It takes time for the viewer to get accustomed to the vase, as though gazing at the reflection of a perpetual snowfall.

Concept-kitchen in carbon fibres.
NOT for Food wants to re-examine the possibilities formal and programmatic linked to the use of the entire kitchen space for a model of the contemporary family. A kitchen that cannot be conceived only in terms of spaces but, necessarily, by means of a more widespread concept, in a position to include the social aspects that arise from the characteristics of a place that always leans more towards not closing inside the space of the house. The project, that integrates formal and technological innovation, is realised in advanced composite materials.

Display case/bookcase in expanded polypropylene.
The uses for this object are countless, but not always obvious at first glance, which tends to distract the mind towards other contexts. The indefinite lines of the ancient Roman masonry technique are re-elaborated in the style, in the materials, and in the functions of a modern object. Whatever the selected function may be, this product is particularly suited to unstructured environments, as the free-style composition of its elements challenges any sense of pre-existing order.

Bed in plywood and solid wood; oak veneer, water-based paint.
The geometry of the bed may be modified to suit the moment, while the figure of the bed may be modified by a manual movement that allows the surface to be rotated 360 degrees. The industrial project focused mostly on aspects related to the concept of sustainable development and respect for personal well-being that constitute the most relevant strong point of the business strategy. To this view, product lifespan, low environmental impact, and low solvent emissions are the tenets that dictated development.

Column system in structural polymer, with ceramic or Vetro Ghiaccio ® wash basins
A one-off structure that balances the weight of its parts and finds equilibrium in the intersection of a vertical matrix and a horizontal one. An apparent conflict that resolves in an elegant blend of curves and straight lines. The design was inspired by an intention to integrate the key elements of a bathroom - the washbasin, the taps, a shelf surface, cabinet, mirror, and light – into a single self-supporting structure. The system comprises a column and semi-column, a cabinet with a “mirror” of reflecting sheet metal with 99% albedo, and an indirect lighting system.

The use of stainless steel gives the whole service an impeccable elegance. Pitcher, mugs and cups comprising constructed in double-ply metal thermally insulate their contents. A titanium tray completes the service, marking the first time in Alessi’s history that this metal has been used. A steel version is also available.

Partition system in aluminum combined with glass, wood, wallpaper, or ceramic.
The fundamental idea of the system is to use a minimal perimeter in profile in aluminum to which other aluminum profiles can be applied in order to obtain not only sliding panels and glass surfaces, but true dividing structures that can also house electrical material as well as piping, or insulation. This is an innovative way to conceive the division of interior spaces. With the exception of supporting walls. With this modular system it is possible to subdivide interior spaces completely, creating rooms with no need for reconstruction.

The elementary yet sophisticated geometry makes it highly versatile, leaving the final decision up to its surroundings and personal needs.
