Unique metaphysical backdrops for show-stopping greenery<\/h3>\r\n

L<\/span>ATO \u00d7 LATO<\/a> presents its new \u201cScenografie\u201d collection. Innovative, architectural cache-pots offer a spectacular display of greenery. These pieces offer an original way to showcase succulent plants: placing their fascinating sculptural forms, no two alike, on these foundations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Transcending the simple flowerpot, the design studio founded by Virginia Valentini and Francesco Breganze de Capnist has created a series of original and theatrical pieces of architecture for plants: stage-settings that combine the cache pot and its stand in a single object. These \u201cScenografie\u201d are as mysterious and metaphysical as a De Chirico painting, structured to show off the botanical geometries of succulents at their very best.<\/p>\r\n

The \u201cScenografie\u201d Collection<\/h4>\r\n

As in all of its other collections, LATOxLATO draws inspiration from the rich heritage of Italian art and architecture and reimagines it in an unexpected, contemporary style. The collection includes three pieces. Each recalls an iconic element of the artistic language of architecture and then, as in metaphysical poetry, decontextualizes it in a rarefied and almost dreamlike dimension. \u201cQuinta n. 1\u201d is a harmonious series of arches creating a deep perspective. On the boundary between the Romanesque and the Gothic, \u201cQuinta n. 2\u201d evokes the geometries of a cathedral. \u201cQuinta n. 3\u201d is a majestic and abstract stairway. All three \u201cstage settings\u201d are specifically designed to show off the quiet presence of succulents.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Like all LATO \u00d7 LATO pieces, they are all exclusively made in Italy. The workmanship stands out for its invisible welds: the visual continuity of the surfaces allows for maximum theatrical impact as a backdrop.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The \u201cScenografie\u201d collection is also suitable for outdoor use, thanks to the treatment of the materials. The mini-architectures are made of laser-cut iron, are hand-welded, and are painted with powder coatings that are resistant to corrosion, water, and aggressive agents. The sophisticated color palette includes mica gray, corten, and tortoiseshell. A delicate tribute to the piazzas, palaces, and porticoes of the Italian Renaissance, bringing a special finishing touch to the architectural, geometrical, and metaphysical signature of \u201cScenografie.\u201d<\/p>\r\n

Thus, it was featured again at the elegant Lucien Pellat Finet boutique, designed by architect Kengo Kuma, to launch the OSAKA \u00d7 MILANO DESIGN LINK event.<\/p><\/article>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
