Boiacca
“Imperfection is beauty”, said Marilyn Monroe one day, perhaps unaware -or perhaps not- of reintroducing a philosophical concept that spans centuries and distances: the Japanese concept of “wabi-sabi”. The ineffable beauty of humble, modest and slightly irregular things, which makes them unique.
In modern architecture, visible cement, with its rough surface, becomes a living material, the protagonist of new aesthetic appeal, which is both traditional and industrial. The Boiacca table, designed by Luca Pevere and Paolo Lucidi, amazes and fascinates when you first see it due to its cement, a very unusual material for plasticity. The cement used for this design project involves a special formula. The table has been treated with a transparent finish that gives its surface tactile appeal and makes it resistant to water. Boiacca is a unique design project. With its slightly uneven nature, the raw material used makes each table different from any other: this feature is highlighted by the number that distinguishes each product.
