Slick
Architonic ID: 20302726
Year of Launch: 2005
Slick, its name recalls the shape. It is a collection of refined and elegant storage forniture that recall the noblesse of old chic travellers’ trunks. The modular volumes, both horizontally and vertically, are placed on chromed or painted metal bases: low horizontal bars or frames with high feet. The architectural simplicity and rigor are enriched and underlined by the shadowy fissure, a groove that runs along the entire perimeter of the facade, at the same time a graphic sign and drawer handle. Slick is further proof of passion for details, the covering is only and exclusively in saddle leather, carefully cut, stretched, folded, beaten and glued onto the entire body of the cabinet, with completely sartorial care for every single piece. Slick is a serenely eclectic expression, both for the horizontal and vertical combination of the containers and for the choice and combination of the saddle leather covering.

Mauro Lipparini graduated in 1980 from the University of Florence’s Department of Architecture where he has also been a faculty member. A leader and innovator in the style that has been called “natural minimalism,” Lipparini is a winner of the Young & Design Milano (Italy 1987) and International Du Pont Award Köln (Germany 1988 and 1989) international design competitions. Lipparini’s extensive work in the field of industrial design includes home and office furnishings, textiles, and other products created for a host of renowned European and Japanese firms. In the realms of architecture and interior design, Lipparini has concentrated primarily on private and public housing, retail and wholesale showrooms, and exposition installations. Lipparini also provides cutting-edge corporate identity construction services including graphic design, editorial, full-scale production, and product application. Lipparini’s style, rooted in the spare forms and clear, powerful lines that are the hallmarks of minimalism, is imbued with a spirit of joy, a buoyant sense of pleasure and possibility. Freely employing bold colors, organic textures, imaginative visual concepts, Lipparini broadens the palette of minimalism, conveying the immediacy and strength of the aesthetic into a new era.
