This space was chosen as the official location for the presentation of the winning projects of the Cristalplant Design Contest 2016, promoted by Cristalplant® in collaboration with Elica, on Thursday 14th April at 7:00pm.


Variazioni
Along a route through the five rooms of a flat in Brera, the exhibition will lead us to a quest towards abstraction. A simplification of shapes translated into pure geometry. Different background colours punctuated by geometric textures become an abstract space from which surfaces and lines emerge in an alternation that designs the space itself. Variations in geometry, colour and size that translate into objects. A tribute to void filled by colour in a dialogue with materials and shapes.
