Marble and Steel Geometric Shelves by Maragno Design
between industry and art, between beauty and technique
Maragno Design project, initiated in 2013 by the designer Jean-Charles Kien, is a complex entity which is hard to define. However, it is intrinsically an idea and concept lab, where experimentation, creation and production are the major concerns.
Design finds itself between industry and art, between beauty and technique; here we find ourselves between art and design.
MSGS is a set of shelves with various sizes and shapes inspired by the profile of icebergs.
The use of marble appeared obvious as refering to the precious and pure characteristics of icebergs, while the structure of steel represents their geometry.
This project is the outcome of a collaboration with designer Lucas Stoppele.
