Compressioni Unprecedented object Design Paolo Ulian

With his Compressioni project, Paolo Ulian has conceived a new way of forming sheetmetal, a method that reveals uncanny expressivity. Composed of a basket, a centrepieceand an "unprecedented object", his triad of objects is a powerful encapsulation of theexperiments he entertained with a master turner at his side. The three containers arefirst made on a lathe, then compressed to obtain the final shape. Trial after trial, itbecame clear that the deformations caused by crushing the semifinished articles wererelatively controllable variables. The folds created on the bottom of the objects werealmost magically arranged in geometric patterns – squares, pentagons, hexagons andoctagons – giving fascinating regularity to the elements' unique differences.
