Stecco outdoor shower from Fima Carlo Frattini

Aptly named, this is the cutest outdoor shower we’ve ever seen: Stecco (the Italian name for stick insect) is part of the Ingriro collection designed by Lorenzo Damiani for Fima Carlo Frattini.

The shape and form of Stecco makes an immediate connection to naturea nd to the animal world. It was named for its looks – as an insect is known for its ability to disguise itself and its remarkable ability to camouflage among branches and leaves, so Stecco’s vaguely anthropomorphic shapes fits harmoniously into open-air spaces.

The main body is a metal tube that rises from the ground and ends with the housing of the pullout hand shower. It stands on two thin legs that evoke the shape of a slender animal with a long and elegant silhouette, just like Stecco.

The main feature of the shower is the freedom of movement and positioning. This is a feature common throughout the entire collection and serves to showcase the formal purity of the lines of each element. Water is turned on and off using a practical foot switch, while the removable hand shower – the “head” of the stick insect – is designed to create an easy grip and can be pulled until it reaches the desired height.

As with all products in the Ingiro collection, Stecco is available in steel finish, grey, blue and green, and now offered in burgundy red and sand grey, two new colours that match additional outdoor environments. Burgundy red is a rich pigment that tends towards red ochre with a hint of burnt brown, while sand grey with more neutral shades is warm and intense with a hint of beige that recalls natural fabrics such as hemp and jute.

Bringing a lovely playfulness to outdoor spaces, Stecco represents the design philosophy of Fima Carlo Frattini perfectly. The company continually seeks to express unique and innovative solutions in search of design, quality and functionality with particular attention on the environment and eco-sustainability.
