Flaminia celebrates design and its longstanding collaboration with Oki Sato with an exhibition dedicated to iconic products and the latest designs for the brand.

In the showroom on Via Solferino, Flaminia unveils the latest designs by Nendo and dedicates an installation to the Japanese designer, with whom they have collaborated since 2010, titled "Nendo in the Stars," available for viewing on April 17 in the panoramic space of S32 Penthouse.

In both locations, the brand's iconic designs by Oki Sato, such as the Pinch sanitary ware, Roll and Monoroll sinks, and the recent experiment Taki, engage in dialogue with absolute novelties like the Box sink, which evokes the shape of a box. The sink's thin thicknesses and clean lines extend beyond the silhouette of the box to take on the appearance of two wings that lend lightness to the object. Box is available in various colors and in rectangular and square forms.

"Each of us experiences the excitement of opening a box, whether it's a gift from a loved one or an awaited order. It's a moment of anticipation. Neither completely closed nor fully open, the sink has a design that captures the exact moment of unboxing. The realization of this complex project was made possible through Ceramica Flaminia's production expertise" said Oki Sato, founder of Nendo studio.

Also on display are prototypes of the new collection of ceramic table lamps, Tub-lamp, available in two versions: Small and Big. This family of lighting products, with soft, pure, and simple lines and geometric volumes, reveals new creative paths that unite Nendo with the Civita Castellana brand, which celebrates seventy years of activity.
