T he comfy armchair Ermes invites to

relax with its comfortable and harmonious shape. The stitching that follows the internal/external seam line, the velvet upholstery and the base in oak stained black, make it a piece of furniture of sophisticated elegance.

Margareth bed is a well bilance mix of elegance and exclusivity, with its light and ethereal design, combined with the most advanced technology materials. The steel head board, covered in fabric seamed on

the edges with a sophisticated tailored handcrafted detail, creates a seductive looking. The base in solid wood is upholstered as well with matching fabric and enhances the design of the solid wood foot shape that supports the bed.

A

bookshelf that can also be positioned free-stranding in a room. Thoroughly minimal, essential, a horizontal concept that at the same time shows its verticality. It is built-up “one on top of the other”, layer on layer, shelf on shelf. It is like the growing of the cities, horizontally and vertically, always from the bottom and always from the middle.

Urban is “non modular concept“: it is design and punctual project, focused on space and requirements. It is expressive freedom and structural logic, strict lines and colour games.

Urban is a city that is throbbing, modifies and evolves itself. it adapts and receives within itselfday-to-day elements. Urban contains, disguises, separates and watches TV. Urban is ironic and funny, sometimes impeccable and serious.

Bookshelf modules consisting of horizontal shelves in 6 lengths and two finishes, with metal boxes in 2 heights and 9 matt lacquer finishes.

Free-standing compositions or wall compositions are available that can be completed with flap door, drawer or TV panel. Structure in blockboard covered in MDF thickn. 3 mm embossed in matt lacquer in the finishes caolino or Grigio lava.

Cover Story 25

LACQUER L acquer is a coating that is generally seen

on furniture. It can be matte, glossy, or resinous and can come in clear or colored styles. They are mainly applied to protect the surfaces of the object from moisture, oils such as from the hands, sunlight, and bacteria and fungus. It will dry very quickly after it has been applied, and will produce a durable finish.

In Italy every year half a million tons of organic volatile substances, highly toxic, are released into the air. MisuraEmme decided to follow the path that would lead the company to combine productivity and respect for the environment.

Years of difficult research and intensive testing, resulted in the long awaited success for MisuraEmme.

The considerable effort both of time and employed resources has allowed the studying of new solutions, using new types of mat varnishes water-based which have never used before in the furniture business.

The results, today, are visible to all. MisuraEmme has at its disposal the revolutionary system completely based on water-soluble products with equal results – and in certain cases even better results – in comparison to traditional spraying plants.

Today, maintaining the same quality, the products mat lacquered and glass mat lacquered of MisuraEmme do not damage the environment, do not harm the health of personnel and does not pollute the air of the home environments.

NATUZZI AND FABRIZIO PLESSI:

The Shape of Energy Natuzzi Open Art project continues with the collaboration of the Italian video art pioneer

Natuzzi's presence at the Salone Internazionale del Mobile 2013 is enhanced by the prestigious collaboration with Fabrizio Plessi, one of the most important and innovative artists on the contemporary scene. The shape of energy is the title of the installation created by Plessi to echoes the dynamism, innovation and energy which have constantly inspired Pasquale Natuzzi and his company.

Lava will be the central feature of the videoinstallations and works that will be exhibited throughout the surface area and indoor venues of the historic Palazzo Caproni in Via Durini, where the Milanese Natuzzi Flagship store is located. The artist has created an installation of powerful visual impact, immersing visitors into an strong sensorial experience.

The primordial fascinating beauty of lava seems to flow through the furniture and design objects of 2014 Natuzzi collection. Screens, digital stones, sounds and Plessi's designs will be theatrically exhibited in the shop simulating a continuous flow, as a tribute to the Natuzzi's vitality, energy and creativity.

Pasquale Natuzzi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Group, said: «We have an established tradition with the Art world and we are very pleased to host in our store the Fabrizio Plessi’s works. His installation is an homage to the beauty of Nature that is in continual ferment, just as our creativity and energy are in continual ferment. They are the driving forces of our continuous research and our need to innovate and experiment».

Fabrizio Plessi describes his collaboration with Natuzzi: «My work has always been to raise the emotional temperature of the video and enhance it with memory, conscience and passion. Since many years also the humanization of technology is an essential basis of my poetics. That’s way my collaboration with Pasquale Natuzzi was unavoidable: it’s almost a biological link, we have a vision of the future that has its roots in a common – ancestral and primordial – origin of our history and culture».

The installation The Shape of Energy is exhibited at the Natuzzi Italia's Flagship Store in Via Durini.

Within the Natuzzi Open Art project (whose mission is to make art accessible to everyone), Fabrizio Plessi creates, together with Natuzzi, an exclusive product collection which are part of the Natuzzi catalogue. They are authentic pieces of art created for everyone, where the value of art merges with the value of design and materials. An union made under the sign of value, for the benefit of the consumer.

Natuzzi and Fabrizio Plessi: The shape of energy 33

Fabrizio Plessi Fabrizio Plessi was born in Reggio Emilia in 1940. He completed his studies at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice where he still lives. Using videos as an artistic instrument and boats, anchors and monumental structures as vehicles for them, his has been an innovative artistic journey which has made him famous the world over. His work has been present at every Venice Biennial from 1970 to the last one in 2011 and, in Italy he received Rome's Quadriennale award in 1999 and his 2002 retrospective at the Scuderie Papali at the Quirinale in Rome made him the only living artist to have exhibited there. He has made over 500 solo exhibitions at Paris's Centre Pompidou in Beaubourg (1982), the Guggenheim in New York (1998), the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego (1998), the Guggenheim in Bilbao (2001), Kassel's Documenta (1987) and Martin Gropiu Bau in Berlin (2003). Plessi has been a reference point for developing countries too, as the inauguration of the Rabat Museum of Contemporary Art in 2006 with his solo exhibition, demonstrates. He has been working with the Louis Vuitton group since 2008 bringing his art to the celebrated events of this French house such as, for example, the America's Cup. Intellectuals and musicians such as Robert Wilson, Philip Glass and Michael Nyman have worked with him.

The electronic scenery he created for Luciano Pavarotti's memorable concert in Central Park in New York in 1993 was unforgettable. Agrigento's Monumenta was Plessi's most gigantic installation.

Fabrizio Plessi is represented in Italy by Galleria Contini.

Natuzzi Open Art The partnership between Natuzzi Italia and the world of art started in 2007 with the collaboration with Arnaldo Pomodoro during the Salone Internazionale del Mobile.

Two years later, during the same event in Milan, this association became official with Natuzzi Open Art project that was created with the objective of taking art into Natuzzi's shops and make it accessible - 'open' - to everyone. This project involves Natuzzi working together with artists of various backgrounds and experience painters, sculptors, photographers and so on - in accordance with the company's style in order to create works of art to be included in the Natuzzi Italia collection.

My home, my oasis of comfort Dr. Nattakrit Thewphaingarm Owning a seaside resort is a dream of many people.

Though simply a condominium, Dr. Nattakrit Thewphaingarm decorated warmly making this condominium well fulfill relaxation needs.

Welcome home

“I have bought this condo about four years already. It is my family’s wish to be close to the nature to relax ourselves and do activities together. Every time I come here I usually go sailing around islands or ride a bicycle to get some fresh air. My friends often hang out here as well because we could have a meal, admire the view and get sea breezes.

The living room is the center of this condo. I decorated it modestly focusing on furniture with functional features. As for design, it must be simple but modern. I chose Natuzzi’s living set, specially ordered in U-Shape and leather decorated with green print clothes. Since this is

a resort, I want a pretty relaxing atmosphere.

This chair is specifically ordered to fit with this place. For TV room, I picked Natuzzi’s day bed.

Whoever comes visit my home, given the chance to sit on this one, they often don’t want to leave to anywhere.

I consider decorating home fun but with plenty amount of details. I consulted with an expert in decoration like Euro Creations Gallery at Thonglor, in which there are various quality brands including my favourite one, Natuzzi.”
