CAMERA DI FATTO

The adjective marriage, which comes from the Lat- in, defined the woman in the bond for procreative purpose (mater-monium, the duty of mother). Today it remains linked to a marriage term, civil and/ or religious weddings and related objects.
But the “we” of today is not what it was then, our needs, the social conditions are different so it would sound natural to rethink the adjective that defines the rooms, the beds, the contexts. After all, in our mind, double, associated with the bed, the room is more synonymous with comfort, large size than thalamus. And why not, then, flank him abundant, idle, opulent, so much! Or relative to the people who use it bed-partnership, bed-couple, bed-de facto!
The master bedroom in the 19th century was equipped always thinking of the private world of women, with a desk for make-up, table with chairs for tea time and a sofa bed for daytime rest. They were very large spaces.
Today’s room, in particular the hotel room, seems to be an attempt to reproduce, miniaturize, these environments. Wardrobes, desks, chairs, bed, bed- side table and a separate bathroom. A rigidity and a repetitiveness that does not make you feel at home, let alone lead to an experience.

This is the intention of Paola Zani to initiate a reflection by proposing a setting in which the elements are free and mobile immersed in a silvery, abstract, fluid space that wants to stimulate a journey into space.
