VORTICE

A generating force, an energy that emanates from the very essence of matter and that finds in water the privileged means to provide well-being and comfort. A new project that is part of the research traced with Intreccio to deepen the theme of contemporary matter, to investigate the complex dialogue between immobility and dynamism, between solidity and lightness, between reality and appearance. Vortice is the new free standing Carrara marble sink designed by Paolo Ulian for antoniolupi
 
In Vortice, matter takes shape through human thought and the use of advanced processing technologies. A project that best expresses this virtuous cycle between nature, man and machine. Vortice is born from the earth, or rather from the quarry, when the marble block is extracted. It has a small base and develops upward through a revolving movement generating fluid and sinuous geometries accentuated by the unique veins and the plastic like behavior of the material.
