MÉTAPHORE FABRICS GARNISH THE UNO ESSENTIAL COLLECTION

Métaphores forged an exceptional partnership around the UNO Essential collection produced by UNO Contract. Alongside participating are the creative duo Ciarmoli Queda Studio and the luxury craft e-commerce platform Artemest.

UNO Contract, an Italian furniture manufacturer, opens up a new field of possibilities by offering for the first time, in Italy and all around the world, the online customization of a collection of high-end furniture dedicated to hotel and hospitality professionals. The artistic intervention of the creative duo Simone Ciarmoli and Miguel Queda, their attention to detail and their desire for unmatched quality, led to the choice of Métaphores.

The collection UNO Essential, composed of twenty-nine pieces garnished in Métaphores fabrics, is inspired by the natural forms and the strength of the elements: the seating furniture appears as monoliths, polished by time, in a deep velvet, the lounge chairs express erosion with a matte and fluffy textile creation. Textures and colours are an integral part of the harmony of the structure: the depth of the abyss and the brown and earthy tones are found in the softness of the Amazonie and Saint-Germain velvets, the string textures are discovered in the shades of Cyclades linen, the luminous reflections of the satin seduce with the sumptuous Paros weaving and unexpected geometries unfold in the finely energized structure of Stadium.

The Néolympique collection invites you to a voyage where two universes meet: the first one, inspired by the Greek environment, cradle of the Olympic Games, transcribes the minerality and patinas of architecture and ancient statues, bathed in light through textures with natural hues and supple finishes. The second one’s graphics are dedicated to the lines in the fields of contemporary sports through dynamic patterns and colours.

Born from this daring and contrasting marriage are fresh and luminous materials composed of linen, reminiscent of stone or sand, in a chromaticism of tones between blue and gray, combined with soft and generous textures in warm tones.

“This fertile association between UNO Contract and Artemest, an expert in the online distribution of furniture, the intuition of Ciarmoli Queda Studio and the character of Métaphores fabrics gave birth to an innovative and new concept within the field of furniture", underline UNO Contract and Artemest.
