For their first exhibition, Agglomerati collaborates with Australian furniture-maker Fred Ganim.
Upon its extraction from the earth, marble is cut into large cubic volumes. Titled MASS, Ganims’ collection explores the reduction of these volumes, subverting the material’s inherent behaviours. MASS is a series of modular pieces constructed around a central radius and is both elegant and elemental in design. The collection is produced in Palissandro marble, sourced in one of northern Italy’s foremost quarries, located near Bergamo.
Together with MASS, Agglomerati presents a new version of the iconic Round Table created in 2015 by Fred Ganim. This limited-edition piece is carved from a single block of Brazilian Quartzite.
AGGLOMERATI is a London based studio creating distinctive stone furniture rooted in simplicity, functionality and longevity.
Alongside its collections the studio connects multidisciplinary designers with Northern Italy’s foremost craftspeople to bring fresh new perspectives to a time-honoured material.
