Cesena, Italy
With his Africa Collection manufactured by Slide, Marcantonio transforms one of the most iconographic animals into an ideal companion for relaxing in outdoor environments bringing a distant and iconic world close to us.
The Africa Collection has recently been awarded a 2022 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
The collection consists of armchairs, stools, and stool chairs all inspired by the African animal kingdom and culture.
Kroko is an armchair with round lines, it spreads irony in the environment.
Kroko is at the same time an industrial item and a sculpture, with references to Nature and contemporary art, thanks to its hinted but also unmistakable shape.
The Threebù presents an evolution of ancestral rituals of sharing space and time.
With an ethnic style but extremely versatile, Threebù becomes a coffee table, stool, bottle rack, or pot, or can be composed vertically to create a totem lamp or to express your personality.
Constantly connected with Nature, the new collection is produced in a new biobased plastic derived from sugar cane, which recalls the colors of the Earth and is used for the first time in the world of design.
