Folio Table by De CastelliDimensions: W 298 x D 110 x H 75 cmMaterials: Brushed BrassOther dimensions and versions are available. Please contact us for any request.The Folio table is a pure, precise shape characterised by perpendicular planes of brushed brass sheet metal. A rational sculpture that, thanks to the strength of its aesthetics, exalts the material in perfectly reflective surfaces. A scenic presence, as simple as it is bold, defines this table, made with thick brass sheets placed on parallel levels, an exclusive design choice that defines both the base and the large rectangular top. The equidistant sheets of metal punctuate the shape of Folio, giving rise to an interesting interplay of deep shadows, in contrast to the light reflected upon the horizontal plane.DE CASTELLI“HARD COUTURE”Faithful to its decision to reinstate the special role of metal in design and experimentation, De Castelli infuses artisan ideas and workmanship into industrial processes, leading to entirely original results. The encounter with design inspires an approach to materials founded upon respect for their potential, be it hidden or obvious, which emerges slowly in a collection of pieces that, despite being part of a series, remain unique.Unique not only for the hand that has created them, but also for the singular cultural path that focuses on the aesthetic (and not just practical) value of the primordial material with which De Castelli shapes living spaces.A BESPOKE APPROACHEach object, even in the repetition of form, is a creative act in and of itself, one that incorporates a heritage of constantly-evolving expertise and research. The equation that relegates ‘cold’ metals to the margins of furnishing projects is thus overturned, bringing iron, brass and copper, in their infinite variations and finishes, to the centre of an entirely renewed stage, allowing them to finally shine with their own light.SUSTAINABILITYDe Castelli has always been committed to making the entire production cycle increasingly sustainable, aware that metal, the material with which its business identifies itself, is precious and must be treated with care, without waste.PEOPLE FIRSTThe wide spaces of the De Castelli headquarters in Crocetta del Montello (TV) allow those who work to enjoy environments where order, cleanliness and safety are always maintained and guaranteed. An attitude of attention and respect for people that has led to the shared ethical code.
