Fantasy and rigor
In a timeless project, but with many references, natural stone finds unexpected and imaginative applications.
Travertine Staircase with bar
A precise choice of materials, travertine, a cultured reference, to the Brion Tomb by Carlo Scarpa, and a reflection on the stairs' function.
The faces of marble
Graphic references to Bauhaus and cubist inspirations, but above all free and autonomous expression of creativity. Born from these references, Faces, a collection of decorative sculptures in marble and natural stones designed and self-produced by Dainelli Studio.
Myths and Caves
Scrolling through the web, we can see on the leading media outlets unattainable examples of holiday homes carved into the rock, in the slopes of land facing the sea, or in the ground's folds.
The stone wall of Trani
The split worked stone walls of Trani help to create the new identity of the spaces in a single-family villa in Mendrisio.
Artificial light as a playground
A table lamp, a sculpture whose concave body emerges from a single carved block of statuary marble from Carrara.
When scraps become a resource
The age-old question is one of waste and what to do with (the so-called "scraps") of processing generated by the pieces left over from an excavation, from a natural stone artifact, or breakages during processing.
The Suspended Staircase
Powerful, dynamic, and at the same time light, the Aurisina marble staircase with its steps seemingly suspended in the void is the fulcrum of the Olivetti store, designed by master Carlo Scarpa located in the wing of the Procuratie Vecchie, in St Mark's Square in Venice.
The energy of material contrast
When natural stone is used for a Marco Piva project, it holds all the power of technology but also the creativity and wisdom of those who know how to transform designs into shapes, transmitting fluidity, emotions, and functionality. And this happens in all areas, whether it's design, interior, or large-scale architectural projects.
Collecting masterpieces
There are 92 Greco-Roman works selected among the marble of the Torlonia collection, the most prestigious private collection of ancient sculptures.
