The idea for the Minim Collection, designed for L’Antic Colonial, comes from the origin of the rock.
We aim to play with the dichotomy between natural and artificial.
We work with a natural material although we project the rules of geometry on it. The industrial process is but an extension of the human handiwork and it is related to the classical sculpture technique.
When a rock is cut, the patterns on its surface show you a part of history. They are an evidence of the course of time and the process that formed it. Heat, pressure, time and even chance work on the rock creating the patterns and textures that are characteristic of the marble stone.
The main features of Minim are its pure shapes and its plain lines. In this collection we work with prismatic shapes based on a modular programme of storage units, where the washbasins are integrated.
Although they look like big blocks of marble, internally they are containers with a wooden structure.
Different layouts can be arranged according to the needs of any space. The pieces of the Minim Collection, with their remarkable monolithic shape faced with stone, can hang on the wall or stand directly on the ground.
