Kazuhiro Yamanaka draws inspiration from Japanese rock gardens. The surface of the rocks is almost hidden. Visitors get carried away imagining submerged and invisible shapes and volumes. Ever y rock has its own inclination and personality.
Pallucco has been travelling the paths of design ever since the ‘80s, identifying and selecting what represents style trends, good example of this was the new version of the Fortuny lamp, which Pallucco turned into a timeless style icon. In the ‘90s Pallucco was already offering under the influence of Hannes Wettstein, the Continua bookcase. The art direction of Jurgen Bey shifted Pallucco’s attention to new forms and new formal languages. Matali Crasset, Kazuhiro Yamanaka, Jean Nouvel, Denis Santachiara, Studio Lagranja, Susanne Philippson, Sergio Calatroni and Enrico Franzolini have created not only their best pieces for Pallucco, but also denote the style of a think tank where the ideas and trends of multicultural design, which knows no boundaries, are met head-on.
