Enrico Guazzi presents Where, a collection that finds its space in the absence of an imposed constraint, redefining the concept of steel furniture through a new perspective.
The collection includes bookshelves, mirrors, and wall containers, elements with an essential design that make versatility their distinctive feature. Their strength lies in their ability to adapt to any environment, transforming into cross-functional solutions for every space in the home.
Inspiration
Where perfectly embodies the theme Soft Perspectives, the thread running through Siderio’s exhibition at Fuorisalone 2025. Here, metal frees itself from its apparent rigidity, revealing a new dimension where sinusoidal curves and material finishes interact with light, turning it into a true furniture element.
The About bookshelf is an emblematic example: its fluid lines and thin profiles intertwine with extreme precision, in a balance that goes beyond mere functional containment. The furniture becomes a frame for the space, embellishing it like an evening dress, while the material finishes enhance its sophisticated character.
The In mirror invites an intimate connection with one’s reflected image. Behind its apparent simplicity lies a refined construction, designed to offer a light and elegant visual effect. The reflections generated by light on the irregular surfaces of the finishes transform each observation into an experience, making In not just an object but a work of art to contemplate and in which to reflect.
The Where collection was a challenge eagerly embraced by Siderio: experimenting with curves, calendaring, and craftsmanship, elements already part of the company’s DNA, but now reinterpreted for a new audience and in an innovative form. Each piece rejects standardization to become a functional unique piece, capable of conveying the care and mastery of manual craftsmanship.
Distinctive Elements
- Curved lines
The use of curves transforms the rigidity of metal into soft, enveloping forms, giving the furniture a new aesthetic lightness. - Minimal thickness
The structures, made from 3mm sheets, frame the space with extreme delicacy, creating visually light and refined pieces. - Invisible welds
The perfection of the micro-welds, expertly finished by hand, provides strength without altering the purity of the shapes.
The Designer
Born in Modena in 1971 and a graduate of the Fine Arts Academy, Enrico Guazzi began his journey in his father’s studio, a renowned graphic designer and advertising illustrator.
Here, he became involved in the world of visual communication, collaborating on national and international campaigns.
His attraction to material and its transformability gradually led him toward architecture and design. The experience gained in showrooms in Modena and Parma allowed him to refine a design approach focused on creating sophisticated and customized environments, in perfect harmony with the space and lifestyle of the clients.
In 2007, he founded Enrico Guazzi Studio in Modena, a multidisciplinary style laboratory, with an international clientele. Through a twenty-year collaboration with a partner in Miami, he developed projects between the USA and the Middle East, exploring various aesthetic languages with an eclectic and always innovative approach.
