The office is our second home
I have read, listened, written, drawn, painted, photographed, visited… Everything can be more interesting if you remain curious, if you do not lose the desire to learn and experiment. I pause to observe the contrasts of colors, the different points of view of a shot, the sound of synonyms with which the same thing can be described, the harmony of a painting. A note can also be color, poetry is also melody, an image can scream more than one word. The expression: that's all... it's all here. (Editorial Director - Art Director)
To talk about myself I would use the English concept of Language Enthusiast, with its bad translation into Italian. Years of study, travel and authentic and pulsating passion for what lies beyond the border converge in this expression. I have an indiscriminate interest in any culture and any person with a story to tell. I remain with difficulty compressed in my dimension, I feel the continuous need to push myself further. I can't stand the innuendo, the half sentences and the boredom of waiting rooms. Certainly communicative, analytical, I split reality into a thousand pieces and then reassemble it. I think and write in 4 languages, which I love all of them, because inside they sing me a beautiful song. (Editor - Translator).
What unites Piacentini's Architecture with Greenaway's Cinema, Munari's Design with Tiepolo's painting and Kandiskij's studies? What unites the election posters with the paper tickets we used for the tram? For visual culture, the challenge of the third millennium lies in seeing the red thread that binds each of its branches to tell the image and aesthetics. I would like to do it through a passion that comes from the tradition of classic cinema. After all, what is the history of Design if not the cerebral attempt to give a soul to matter, to plagiarize the form according to its most hidden meaning and all to be revealed? (Editor - Reporter)

For decades the image of the office has dominated our visual culture and our way of interpreting the work, just think of famous Hollywood classics such as Billy Wilder's The Apartment or Hitchcock's Vertigo; yet the office, which is our second home, goes beyond a simplistic workplace and CAOSCREO wants to leverage this aspect, to give value to creativity and remind us that it is not the place to serve our pains, but where to enrich and enrich us as weel... In this direction go the functionality and essentiality of design objects such as the Robyn umbrella stand, with the shape of an elegant and classic quiver, the Roger coat hanger which, when in red color, recalls the corals working in the streets its slender but rounded shape upwards. To break the monotony of classic environments, especially for those who do creative works, nothing would be more suitable than Lampadin@ and Lampadì, two different lamps but united by the fact that they are both table lamps, and both without stems, but with rounded, soft shapes, read, "disengaged"...
