Dear Shaded Viewers,

Yesterday I dropped in to Graanmarkt 13 and visited their Gallery where Vincenzo de Cotiis' beautiful furniture is until July 5th. Vincenzo re-purposes old materials in his hand crafted furniture designs. 

He was trained at the Milan Polytechnic and marries his sense of space from the vantage point of an architect merged with his sensibility for materials which are salvaged parts that have been treated with experimental procedures and techniques and incorporate the signs and scratchs of time. Materials include recycled wood, fiberglass, resin, leather, brass and iron. All pieces are a limited edition. 

Later,

Diane
