Rubberevive is a project for the recovery of rubber, as a special refusal, from national typographies. Each product, made from this material, is unique and unrepeatable for the appearance created by its use. Neb and Rose are two containers assembled with rubber, flexible for size or shape respectively. The Beret lamp can change aspects as needed, while Seamlines is a lamps line in which the electric cable function is as constitutive material and as decoration.
Rose is a double function container with soft and polymorphic profile that recalls a nature rose form. In the closed configuration, pockets are created, which may contain organic material, such as plants or flowers. Thanks to some buttons, it is possible changing the basic shape creating a more capacious multi-purpose container. Rose is intended for a private home or an office area.
Neb is a simple container, with a shape suited to office environment inside or outside home. Closed in the two extremities reminds the profile of a beak, hence the name Neb. Available in three sizes, it can be stored in one within the other taking advantage of the space. The reduce dimensions allow the product to be washed comfortably, as the composition of the material can accommodate all kinds of substances.
Seamlines is a lamps family that exploits the electric cable in order to close the lamp shades shape. Three suspension lamps, Conic, Teepee and Arrow, are made from various basic shapes such as square or ellipse, closed to different cones, creating three types of light beams based on changing needs. The cable is made of fabric and matches the different departure sheet colors.
Beret is a suspension lamp in exaggerated shapes. It has three different configurations made from a single form - a circle. The open configuration defines a sort of hat, allowing the sheet to freely occupy the space asymmetrically. If the sheet is semi wrapped, with the special button, it creates a particular shade directing the light sideways. Wrapping the sheet tightly, it creates a long cylinder narrowbeam that can be combined with other similar products creating a suggestive atmosphere environment.
