Luis Alberto Arrivillaga / PUTIA first ranked Cristalplant + MDFitaly design contest
Putia, Luis Alberto Arrivillaga is the winner of the first prize at the MDFitaly + Cristalplant design contest. Putia is characterized by two fundamental elements: the materials and proportions. It is preferred to use duediversi materials in order to give greater value to both, so doing one supports the other. Also sonodue total antithesis materials which produce a unique bond.
The table consists of a thin slab of Cristalplant, which produces a sensazioned elegance and lightness, the legs are made of solid wood, which brings to the table strength and stability. Second key element are the proportions that, taken together, stimulate the Visual and tactile ones emotions. It is the angle at the core of the project, cela but at the same time show, combines edivide. Ultimately from there the tactile part that extends onto the surface of the floor up in the legs. The corner bends and this produces absolute continuity between the two materials. The name of the project, I decided the Putia walking among the streets of Ragusa Ibla, Sicily; in Sicily, in fact, means shop (handicrafts).
