Seeds
Ethimo | by Cristina Celestino
Botanical charm inspires outdoor design.
Ethimo and Cristina Celestino have created an eclectic collection of benches and tables for outdoor living in simplicity and harmony. The evocative and symbolic name Seeds, a reference to the world of gardening and traditional greenhouse and nursery furnishings, was chosen to describe a collection essential in its forms yet elegant in its details, where warm and fine materials like terracotta and natural teak come together in a sophisticated balance of textures and processes.
Her work is characterized by an innate freedom of observation that is both erudite and curious, with a playful approach. She cultivates a great capacity for scientific and aesthetic investigation, displaying an obsession with material and geometry. This allows her to move across history and traditions, altering the scale of objects and creating new conceptual and decorative canons. An approach that intertwines a transdisciplinary perspective with analytical rigor, leading to unexpected spaces, objects, and experiences where nature speaks to us with unanimity.
