A scenic backdrop that approaches the wall by superimposing a wooden surface in different essences or lacquered, an elegant and continuous front interrupted only by vertical cuts that mark its modularity. The cabinet also offers a practical support surface hidden by the height of the doors that protrude and shield it from view. Support surface that is duplicated through the positioning of a wooden shelf / container that houses the objects and integrates LED lighting.
Today the boiserie / container is proposed in the version with modules on the ground or suspended in different widths, heights and depths including the 40 cm version that will allow Anima Liquida to also explore the living area and other rooms of the house. The multiple finishes and colors will help establish a virtuous and elegant dialogue, as in the style of antoniolupi, with the other surfaces and textures that furnish and characterize the spaces
Today the project is expanding with a series of furniture with limited dimensions and very textured finishes, designed not only for the bathroom but also for the living room. Giorgio Rava's Anima Liquida project is not only made up of the freestanding sink. The collection also includes floors and walls also made of Ceppo di Grè. An important novelty that marks antoniolupi's entry into the world of coatings, further strengthening its sartorial identity. Under the banner of that total look that has always distinguished the Tuscan company.
“As lymph through the body, water carves the stone, bearer of life”, tells Giorgio Rava. “Anima Liquida is a reflection on water and man that takes us back to the origins of life to remind us of what we are made of. It is meant to free water from the yoke of technology and from the many devices that determine its performance, witnesses to the blind human ambition to dominate elements”
The result is a stone column that recalls the archetype of the baptismal font. A project designed primarily to stimulate reflection on life and man's relationship with water. To bring the daily bathing ritual back to its ancestral value and thus rediscover a connection with our most authentic side.
With Anima Liquida a new chapter is added to the research on materials conducted by antoniolupi. After reinventing marble and cork and developing new materials, such as Flumood, Cristalmood and Colormood, antoniolupi designs another sink in natural stone. A choice that confirms that the Tuscan company has an unstoppable disposition for experimentation. But also, a confirmation of antoniolupi's attention to the environment.
