"Wood and screw are like page and ink, marble and chisel. The material and the tool that transforms it.

An outsize screw made of coloured wood, playful yet refined, like all the objects that come from the hands of Pierluigi Ghianda, one of the greatest of contemporary cabinet makers. And a crystal table top, which leaves the idea bare: "Total absence of all superimposed decoration, redundant and useless", Vico Magistretti used to say. "It's always the conceptual detail that attracts people's interest". "
