Lezioni by Enzo Mari

We met Enzo Mari to begin a philosophical dialogue about the resin. We already knew that his rigorous way of thinking, his tendency to formal purity, his meticulous attention to details would have resulted into a new range of products.

With a cigar in his mouth, his profound voice and his natural inclination towards teaching, has led us deep inside his project: the fluidity of the resin had to be controlled and mastered, creating archetypal shapes, in a game of accurate, geometrical overlaps of the material.

In order to honour that moment, we have called the collection Lezioni ('Lessons'). We have paid attention to the lessons, we have studied and made our experiments.

These days, when we make our homework, creating his pieces, we put into practice his tuitions on the diligent care in overlapping the resin and on the meticulous choice of the colours.

Observing these objects, one can recognise the architectural vision of the Maestro, where the softness of the material, the transparencies and the opacities merge together along straight lines and basic shapes.

Lezioni by Enzo Mari is a timeless collection.
