Thor – Petalì

Thor – Petalì

A single material, sheet steel, and identical processes (bending, welding and painting) have been used for two different umbrella stands. While Petalì began as a formal exploration, Thor arose from the need to find a space for folding umbrellas which are increasingly common but lack a specific storage solution. Both share the same compositional and structural concept: replicating and assembling a single element to reinforce the object’s aesthetic identity and limit production costs.
