Birdie

Design by Serena Confalonieri
“”If I say ‘On the Trestle’, what comes to Your mind?” In literature, the term Trestle (Trespolo), which derives from the Latin ‘tripes-pĕdis’ meaning “three feet,” is used metaphorically to symbolize the base or foundation of something. The term evokes an image of a wooden object , or more precisely, the most supreme of all wooden Objects (with a capital O), followed only by the table, which, for production purposes, requires both wood and a trestle. The result is a heterogeneous collection of unconventional furnishing accessories, dreamed and dreamy objects.

An extraordinary piece of furniture inspired by the concrete and poetic concept of a pedestal. A vertical structure of which the pedestal constitutes a small component of the entire object. Drawing inspiration from the type of skyscraper furniture born around the 1960s, Birdie is configured as a sequence of different and well-defined functional elements that, placed side by side and stacked, form an irregular column of geometric shapes. Consisting of blocks with different functions the pedestal designed to support and hang objects, and, finally, two other storage elements. Just as in block constructions, Birdie can be disassembled and divided into 3 interchangeable modules thanks to a threaded central support and cubes that serve as stops, allowing for the transformation and customization of the furniture to adapt it to individual habits and preferences
