Dialoganti, the new mirror collection designed by Gumdesign and AL Studio for antoniolupi is inspired by Suprematist art and is based around a series of geometric figures.
With Dialoganti the mirror surpasses its primary function becoming a fusion of art and design – almost an abstract painting. The mirrored geometries and backlit surfaces create a minimalist object with strong design credentials, conceived to speak the same language as the other furnishings and accessories in the antoniolupi catalogue.
Born from the desire to recover shapes and decorations of mirrors from antoniolupi’s historical archive, the Dialoganti collection reinterprets that initial design through art. The project is inspired by the work of Kazimir Malevič, the great Russian artist who founded the Suprematist movement. Just as in a painting by Malevič, in Dialoganti mirrors everything is brought back to essential pure forms and elementary geometries. Circles, arcs, rectangles, and triangles become actors in a poetic-compositional performance.
Dialogant mirrors are created by the integration of two geometries. Two figures, one inside the other, that define formal and dimensional balances. Geometries with a mirrored surface are inscribed within squares or rectangles, all with a very thin frame. The remaining surface is sandblasted and backlit, thus further highlighting the central portion of the mirror. The geometry of the reflective surface contrasts with its luminous alter ego, resulting in striking optical effects. The result is a virtual depth that alters the perception of the surface, giving character to the entire environment.
Thanks to the many geometric combinations, Dialoganti mirrors can be made in an infinite number of solutions.
The clean and rigorous design of Dialoganti allows the mirrors to be used in every room of the house, confirming the flexibility of antoniolupi collections. Always synonymous with excellence in the world of bathroom furniture, today antoniolupi offers furnishing solutions for the living, dining, and bedroom areas as well.
