La Stanza Dello Scirocco Basket by Alessi. “La Stanza dello Scirocco” is
a range of items suitable for different rooms, such as the kitchen and the
living room born out of the abstract and motionless atmosphere of a magic place:
the room in large Sicilian country homes where one is forced to seek shelter
from the sultriness while waiting for the scirocco to die down. It is a room
without windows in which you can do nothing but ponder the wind that is undoing
all sublunary things outside. The upshot is a collection of geometrically
irregular items made up of small splinters of various sizes, interlaced in an
unstable balance. DESIGNER: Mario Trimarchi DIMENSIONS: 23.2CM (W) x 24.5CM
