T Net

BY FRANCO POLI

The T NET is striking, it has presence and gravitas. This unique design crosses the boundary between art and functionality in a breathtaking piece of craftsmanship that showcases the calibre, imagination and capabilities of Matteograssi.

The pattern morphs across the screen surface as the tension extends and wanes, it appears as a zip at the exterior and a fishing net in the middle. There is the feel of a veil about it, allowing a hazy snapshop to the other side and creating a silhouette of the world beyond.

This hanging screen, fixed to the floor and ceiling by aluminium grey exposy painted steel fixings and vertically supported by laternal rods in stainless steel with chromed details, is made of patented curred coach hide, which when strained and fixed can reach up to 400 cm high.
