Blow up
The Blow Up umbrella stand by Alessi, designed by Fratelli Campana, brings a poetic touch to your entryway. Its unique form, inspired by the game Shanghai, is created by an artistic arrangement of steel sticks, forming a dynamic interplay of solids and voids. This piece serves as a striking metal sculpture, showcasing a thoughtful blend of industrial design and traditional Brazilian craftsmanship, particularly in bamboo processing. It's a testament to the designers' vision of merging humble materials with artistic creation.
