CUGINO

MC 20 — CUGINO
STOOL/TABLE
BY KONSTANTIN GRCIC

CUGINO is an expertly constructed wooden object that is ‘not a stool’ and ‘not a low table’,
but could in fact be both – CUGINO will find its use over time.
Konstantin Grcic, who has a history in wood work, used the opportunity to experiment with the interplay of solidity and void to find a form that is open for interpretation, not given a function from the outset.
It is not about structure, it is not about economy; it is a deliberate departure.
It relies on Mattiazzi’s skill with complex joinery, construction and fine finishing.

“CUGINO is the result of many tries; it happened over time, with wanting
it to be an object that we don’t already know, but also something that is
maybe a little bit familiar.“
Konstantin Grcic
