Stella is a multipurpose sideboard made in American walnut and designed for Ceccotti. Stella's lightweight appearance masks its robust wood structure*. It is made lovingly with a very labour-intensive process of top Italian craftsmanship. Simplicity is the most difficult of all concepts.

Meta wanted a piece that could be flexible to various scales, styles and books. This shelf system was inspired by the composition principles of fractal forms. A patina with a gradation of steel colors lends itself to the spiral composition of the object, bestowing it with a certain lightness in spite of its actual weight. 

The Borghese sofa was inspired by the Stone Pines of Villa Borghese in Rome: the metal structure is reminiscent of the intricate tree branches, while the cushions serve as the landscape. Again, the emotional relation with nature is the primary source of inspiration.

The inspiration for this design is found in nature’s basic shapes. From our elementary cells to the planetary system the universe is composed of networks and interconnections of elements and materials. This bookcase mirrors the system of the fundamental structures of life, whether in their micro or macro scale. 

This set of lights is an artificial reproduction of the moment when the sun is filtered through leaves. In each head the sequence of the LEDs and their reflection on the mirrors interpret this natural movement: its inspiration is a fugitive movement but its reproduction is perennial.
