Turno

Turno is a square wooden table.‎“Exquisite melting silken tints, veined roses and pale violets, like the draperies of Veronese, golden orange, yellows, vinous and intense, like Titian’s simarres … undulate, conflict, and lose themselves under the innumerable flaming darts descending from above at every discharge of the sun’s rays.‎”Hippolyte Taine, Italy Turning identity.‎ An object and its infinite possibilities; unique and unmistakeable, while at the same time constantly different.‎ Like the lagoon landscape, in its infinite nuances of luminous reflections, glare and iridescent colours, the table designed by frattinifrilli – Milanese designer Davide Frattini Frilli – reveals itself to be a piece of furniture with an unmistakeable identity, which simultaneously expresses numerous aspects of its identity.‎In TURNO, a tabletop with an imposing personality – solid, and at the same time lightweight, entirely similar to a solid sculpture, at the same time refined by the gently rounded forms – houses four supporting elements with semi-circular base, equally compact and decisive in their plastic linearity.‎ The various components of the furniture piece together express an ingenious and surprising mechanism: the legs, rotating on themselves and positioning themselves differently in relation to the surface, indeed going so far as defining numerous different configurations.‎TURNO is a table which becomes infinite tables: it contains within it the concept of customisation and tailor-made design, and centres on interaction with the space and the relationship with the person choosing it for their own domestic landscape.‎
