At a moment in history when everything had to be questioned and rethought, during a season of Italian architecture that was then incandescent and is now part of myth, a group of young students from Florence set out to change the world-and they truly left some marks on it, at least in our field, that is, in the world of design. We are talking about the “terrible kids” of Superstudio. They started from the idea of the “Continuous Monument,” which wraps everything like a squared magma; moving through the “Architecture Histograms,” which effortlessly generate furniture and environments where the “Supersurface is a model of mental attitude,” they arrive at a “Superidea” that marks time with constant frequencies, explicitly written in black and white, conceptually revealed and theoretically closed. This path leads to the Quaderna collection-the most architectural furniture ever seen in the long history of design-which finds Aurelio Zanotta ready to transform it into a myth.
A unique and unrepeatable family of furniture takes shape-an icon based on regular geometric forms clad in white squared laminate (specially created by Abet Print, designed by Superstudio, and named Misura), characterized by strict, simple, and perfectly defined volumes.It is a true “artificial landscape,” extendable at will, neutral and strong at the same time: a single squared plane “with legs.”
