Imago

The gentleness of the Norwegian landscape and attention to the forms of the body and ergonomics are the reference points of the young interior architect and product designer Mikael Pedersen, born in 1983 and with a studio in Bergen. Discovered at Salone Satellite, his coffee table/stool Imago (L.71xD.35,5xH.40cm) stands out for its fun play of opposites: the horizontal form of the contoured table-top contrasting with the pleasant incline of the tapered legs, and the material aspect of the wood with the smooth, soft surface of the seat which takes shape and becomes three-dimensional. A small sinuous and ironic object that has a decisive cut, an aspect which distinguishes all of the products in the Living Divani collection.
