Public spacesThe protagonist for this staircase is natural iron, simply oxidized by hand to obtain a ‘’spotted’’ effect. This project involved a kind of manufacture typical of heavy carpentry. Metal sheets were chosen with a thickness of 15 mm, using them as if they were sheets, cutting them with laser and joining one to the other. A game of grafts and joints in a structure almost welding free, composed as if it was a Meccano game.
For the wall covering Boiserie, DeLabré stainless steel was chosen, a De Castelli’s more homogeneous finishing compared to the staircase material. In this case, what is interesting is the solution for covering fire-fighting appliances with concealed doors. The internal glass of the staircase also acts as a support for the handrails.
Glass, stainless steel and stone coexist and intersect to create a unitary structure.
The distinctive metamorphic capacities of metal create their own stylistic patterns even on the simplest of monochrome surfaces. The possibilities offered by the Scomposta and Boiserie wall covering systems ensure a range of highly flexible compositional solutions and meet the needs of those seeking truly original expressive possibilities of the highest quality. Comprising panels of different sizes, the two systems are fully customizable. With the Scomposta system, the panels are mounted onto wall racks. For Boiserie, it is possible to install wooden or aluminum panels covered with De Castelli materials. Whatever the solution chosen by the designer, both systems allow maximum compositional freedom to ennoble surfaces of any size.
