During the Milano Design Week, at Jannone Gallery, in addition to ONE TWO FIVE exhibition by Steven Holl, you can admire QUINTA, a site specific installation directed by Steven Tesic and Milena Veljkovic (di_archon_ass architetti).

A striking element in the installation – skillfully engraved, hung and mobile, thanks to hinges that produce fluid rotation of very heavy objects, freeing them from the weight of gravity – is _ Quinta _ made of Botticino Classico marble. The stone seating elements, arranged in a mini- landscape of many different objects, accommodate
faucets and handles, transformed into display pieces – lanterns.

The installation, made of Botticino Classico marble sponsored by Cooperativa Operai Cavatori del Botticino, is moved by Dinamica Smart Hinge System, which is a movement system produced by Fratelli Garletti and selected by ADI Design Index in 2017 and Compasso d’Oro candidate in 2018. The collections chosen to be part of this exhibition will be by Quadro Design: Levo from Studio Adolini and HB, Modo and Stereo by Luca Papini.
