Designer: Roberto Mattioli (Parma, Italy)
Designer ‘Roberto Mattioli’, has proved his talent of using simple techniques creatively by shaping it into an amazing and admiring piece of functional art. The whole arrangement of ‘Tuttoscorre’ looks like a curvaceous river, flowing jubilantly and the sun, at horizon, playing with it. Sometimes, it hides itself in the water like a child and sometimes comes out in the open sky to play. The whole concept of ‘Tuttoscorre’ is very simple but unique and can easily become the centre of attraction, be it in your bedroom or living room.
What’s unique
Although technique is very simple but the genius way in which this art piece has been used is really appreciable. It does not require additional accessories like dimmers. All he used are a simple darkened etched glass slab, a neon bulb, a battery to recharge it and two half spheres. You can change the tone of the scene just by scrolling the front half sphere in the required part of the slab.
High points
The etched glass slab divides the sphere and these are kept together by simple use of magnets. The half sphere, which is placed behind the slab, is equipped with a neon bulb that is powered by a battery placed at a corner. The front half sphere controls the movement of light source and hence its intensity. You just need to scroll it along the glass slab. Whenever it requires charging, just scroll the controller to the corner.
