Cosmic Diner – Diesel Living with Seletti This year is the 50th anniversary of the first man to set foot on the moon: what better way to celebrate if not with a universe- inspired collection for the table? Cosmic Diner is a visionary set of porcelain plated representing the 9 planets, the Sun and the Moon. After winning the Wallpaper’s Design Award 2015, the Cosmic Diner collection of dishes has been enriched with additional items, such as new bowls, glasses and stainless steel cutlery to complete an ironic and poetic tableware service.
But the highlights of the collections are the Starman vase and the Rockets salt and pepper grinders. Starman is made of porcelain and it replicates and astronaut in all his details: the backpack on his shoulders has a hole which makes it an actual vase.
The salt and pepper grinder are perfect to complement the Cosmic Diner collection. Made of lacquered and decorated wood, the structure hides the actual grinder made of steel and ceramic: aesthetics and functionality put together for a unique table. Industry Garden Furniture – by Studio Job After the great success of the Design Week in Milan, the Industry Garden Furniture, a collection for both the outdoors and the indoors born from the genius of Studio Job, will be back in the spotlight.
The set, consisting of a round table, oval table and chairs, resumes the style of the classic garden sets integrating the iconic graphics of the rebellious duo from Antwerp. Made of light and recyclable cast aluminum, Industry can be completely disassembled to be extremely handy in its packaging for transportation. A bench and an armchair that further expand the collection will be presented in preview at Maison & Objet. Here is how Studio Job sums up this collaboration: “The Industry theme is indeed an icon in our language. It has been used in the most different ways: first used in reliefs for eg. sculptures (2007), marquetry furniture (2008), fashion shows (2010), fabrics (2012) and wallpaper (2014) ….. You see how it works? From high design to ready to use, that’s the way we like it! For the edgy brand Seletti we now re-designed this well-known but hyper kitschy garden set using the Industry iconography. …..Why garden? Well, have you ever seen rock and roll garden furniture? So, here it is!….with your gas masks,butterflies and many others from the Studio Job archives. All nicely casted in aluminum and brightly colored (although our favorite would, of course, be matt black:-))”
