A collaboration that aims to reinterpret a technical construction material through a design-focused, experimental approach

La collaborazione tra Giò Forma e ItalMesh nasce dalla volontà di reinterpretare un materiale tecnico, pensato per l'edilizia, in chiave progettuale e sperimentale. II lavoro parte dallo studio di sistemi di facciata, in cui la mesh metallica viene disegnata su misura per adattarsi a linguaggi architettonici diversi. Mail processo va oltre: i fogli di mesh vengono trasformati in moduli, e i moduli in oggetti di design. Cambiando scala e funzione, il materiale assume nuove identità, dando vita a elementi versatili e decorativi, applicabili in contesti e ambienti eterogenei. Un' esplorazione tra architettura, design e materia.

The collaboration between Giò Forma and ItalMesh stems from the desire to reinterpret a technical construction material through a design-driven, experimental approach. The work begins with the study of facade systems, where metal mesh is custom-desianed to adapt to different architectural languages. But the process aoes further: mesh sheets are transformed into modules, and modules into design objects. By shifting scale and function, the material takes on new identities-becoming versatile and decorative elements suitable for a varietv of spaces and contexts. An exploration at the intersection of architecture, design, and materiality.
