As is often the case with Italian ateliers, tradition is handed down from seniors to juniors. Algranti Lab conveys a new aesthetics, inherited from Costanza Algranti’s creativity, expressing itself through dismissed materials, where recycling becomes an art.
In fact, the true value of these artefacts is not in recycling, but in the effect they trigger: sheet metal, copper sheets, wooden materials ruined by time are carefully reused and readjusted to fit new spaces and meet new requirements. They tell a story, insofar as they have already lived one life and have survived. Only the very best things – besides feelings – survive the test of time and the objects we are talking about do have feelings and thoroughly express them.
