NEW COLLECTION ZODIAC
With this series of zodiac charger plates, we chose to move away from the most predictable idea of an astrological collection, one based on recognizable emblems and figures, and instead work on a more subtle terrain: the sign not as an image, but as a sensitive structure, an atmosphere, a quality of space.
From the very beginning, we asked ourselves what remains of a zodiac sign when it is stripped of its most obvious iconography, leaving only the character, rhythm, and tension that run through it. From this question the project was born: not from representation, but from transformation.
We conceived each charger plate as a micro-cartography, an inhabited surface in which the sign is never declared, but emerges through densities, variations in texture, relationships between solids and voids, balances and frictions. For this reason, in our plates, the Zodiac is not illustrated: it is absorbed into a botanical weave of leaves, veins, and minimal blossoms, which constructs a true symbolic space, not merely a decorative background.
What interested us above all was the quality of space: for us, the sign ceases to be an icon and becomes a way of organizing the visual field. We worked on that subtle threshold that brings decoration and narrative into dialogue, the everyday object and the imaginary, so that the charger plate would remain a simple gesture, yet capable of holding a silent depth.
This collection is born from a precise conviction: character is never an isolated trait, but a weave, a constellation of light presences. We wanted to bring this idea to the table, transforming the act of setting it into a narrative gesture.
Not an illustrated horoscope, therefore, but a small atlas of the imagination, to be inhabited every day.
Each charger plate is entirely handmade.
