LATOxLATO Partners with Black Tie at Salone del Mobile.Milano

April 8, 2024
LATOxLATO by architects Virginia Valentini and Francesco Breganze de Capnist, is at the Salone del Mobile.Milano with Black Tie. The multidisciplinary duo, with its original architectural language, formulates an unprecedented celebration of Vienna straw. The freestanding bookcase Itoku and the dinner chair Kumiko take shape from the research around this timeless material. Two pieces of furniture transversal to residential and contract, two microarchitectures designed to enhance the lightness of Vienna straw, bringing a refined and almost metaphysical atmosphere to any type of space, in perfect harmony with LATOxLATO’s style.

 

 

The Itoku bookcase was born from a long reflection on the ancient Oriental tradition of using room dividers. The reference to this movable element, which has always been employed to provide privacy and outline evocative three-dimensional backdrops, is enriched with a new function of storage. The essential and rounded design plays with the openable and semi-transparent Vienna straw elements, with the rigorous wooden structure and brass details. Precious material combinations for a versatile and freely interpretable bookcase to be set in the richest and most sophisticated interiors or in contemporary spaces.

The lightness of Vienna straw meets the solidity of solid wood in the Kumiko armchair. The upholstered seat and wraparound frame are designed to provide maximum comfort during a dinner with friends or a working lunch with colleagues. Fine fabrics, rattan inserts, and brass details transform Kumiko into an elegant little throne. A perfect armchair for adding a sophisticated touch to the dining room and for the upscale hotel and restaurant industry.

Salone del Mobile.Milano takes place from April 16-22.
