Tati

Year: 1992
Company: Steel
Designer: Giovanni Levanti

 

Tati aligns a coat stand with an umbrella stand on a single base. A gaunt and almost bare object that seems to look with irony at the modernist style by altering the traditional, figurative performance: a big chrome tube, from which four rods protrude, is placed on a small  frosted glass base which is,  in turn, supported by an  aluminium tube whose diameter is smaller. Next  to it – almost like a friend – the umbrella stand is characterized by a circle that seems to grow from a bowl  placed on the single base.
