Matrix International decided this year to extend the production rights, renewing its environmental significance: the circular economy is in fact achieved in design, thanks to the collaboration with r3direct, a Tuscan company that created the shell using post-consumer recycled plastic obtained from plasmix, a material transformed by Revet. In addition to the classic Arabesk armchair, it’s presented also the new Arabesk Double sofa, with its original mask shape, also designed by Folke Jansson in 1955 but produced in very few examples, one of which is exhibited at the National Museum in Stockholm while the few others belong to private collections. The creative suggests the customization using the elegant Tree of life print, a floral decoration by Simone Guidarelli Walldesign, a pattern that comes from researches on ancient Chinese embroideries of the 1920s. Since then, a project of constant success and which today finds a new allure by being covered by the creativity of Simone Guidarelli, an artist with a fervent imagination who creates his own dimension of reality with his exclusive audacity, daring and breaking down the schemes with irony and style. It was 1955 when the armchair was presented at the Gothenburg Exhibition Show, breaking down the wall of the linearity of the design conceived up to that moment, with sculptural, soft and enveloping lines. In addition to this, simultaneously over the years, the Tuscan company has built a personal contemporary repertoire.īut it is exactly from CODICI collection that Matrix presents itself at Fuorisalone 2021, dressing up with novelties “Arabesk”, the original armchair designed by Folke Jansson, Swedish sculptor, ceramic painter and designer. A journey that has merged into the CODICI collection. This is why archives and private collections’ researches have been key as well as the heirs’ collaboration of great architects who wrote the first pages of modern design since the 1920s.
