Concetto
L’ Hotel Mandarin Oriental di Barcellona è stata la prima occasione di collaborazione tra Patricia e noi. Da questo primo incontro nasce Conca, in due tempi e in due versioni. La prima, più grande, nata da un approccio scultoreo ed espressivo, è riservata solo all’hotel. La seconda, più raccolta, ripensata in termini di proporzioni, è entrata far parte del nostro catalogo. In entrambi i casi Patricia ha voluto proporre una maniglia importante, di carattere, ma nello stesso tempo leggera: da accarezzare, più che da impugnare. Antonio Olivari
