Natural simplicity
The pursuit of simplicity and sublime beauty achieved through clean, natural lines is the design philosophy of Naoto Fukasawa, one of the most prominent designers on the international scene.
For the Boffi-Fantini Aboutwater collection, he designed AF/21, a washbasin mixer of extreme simplicity and beauty, a light design, with a simultaneously powerful and absolute line, a harmonious mix of charm and poetry.
Naoto Fukasawa adds an important piece to the AF/21 faucet series in the Boffi Fantini Aboutwater collection, with a poetic, natural-looking marble handle.
Creator of elegantly simple objects with a poetic allure, and in constant pursuit of a universally-understood aesthetic where nature is often the source of inspiration, Fukasawa has designed a new marble handle in Carrara White and Marquinia Black marble, with the usual light, spare lines that aim to achieve the absolute form of the archetype. The handle’s form seems to soften the material, responding to how the hand moves and creating the sense of a natural object, a river stone smoothed by water and time
