“It often happened to us to supply carpentry labs with metal frames for the carrying-out of hand-made furniture. This way I started to imagine to accost a substance like metal, of which I know potentiality and limits, to other natural elements. A curiosity from which sprung out the desire to create an aesthetic sensory experience” (Giovanni Vener)
A research that in 2012 brought to the creation of VENER Lab. A team of 12 carpenters, mechanicians and carpenters, carry out the works designed and projected by Giovanni Vener. Stainless steel, aluminium, iron, copper and cortén steel that melt with matters as the chestnut, Lebanese cedar, the stone, the marble, the glass.
A route that created modern furniture, unique pieces or anyway in over limited production, that bring an elegant balance between shape and substance, between hand-made and industry archeology, between art and design.
