SENSITIVE COLORS

laura volpi and francesca corazzina renew a happy collaboration for the color collection. the inspiration for laura's new jewellery palette stems from her desire to explore warm and comforting colors for winter. from a shared reflection an unusual chromatic harmony is born, which tells of emotions. the palette becomes an opportunity for creating chromatic combinations for interiors with materiavera materials.
in francesca's COLOREDESIGN interior proposals, the 4 shades of the palette are the basis for the creation of a more extensive palette, composed of hues with varying chiaroscuro and saturation values, suitable for floor surfaces, walls, and furnishings. the possibilities that color allows are numerous.. colors are sensitive because they feel the light, they feel the material and they feel the neighboring colors.
SONIC COLORS
with francesca, we initially collaborated on defining the sonic colors palette, for the color collection. working together, we decided to bring the sonic colors into another design area: the search for color in interiors. the three colors of the palette were the subject of a chromatic study for floors, walls, furniture and interior finishes of an ideal project of a house retreat in nature.
the experience of natural places suggests the sonic qualities of colors: the low, deep sound of a coniferous forest, the light sonority of the vast air on the border between sky and sea, the brief and joyful note of a new spring bud. these sensations guided laura and francesca's design for the color collection palette. similarly in a living interior: a heavy color on the floor creates a solid base that supports us, a light color on the walls expands the space, and a lively color calls us in.
materiavera's design drawings and materials were used for a special edition of my architectures line.
the architectures line was created by connecting geometric elements with nylon thread. over time i return to the architectures project with variations from the original.
the “connections at the border” event in francesca's COLOREDESIGN studio was an opportunity to introduce the work of both of them and their collaboration. laura and francesca think there will be a sequel.
