The Augusto dining table presents itself as a true sculptural work combining craftsmanship and creative innovation. The protagonist of the product is the modular base in solid canaletta walnut, composed of interlocking elements that allow Agusto to adapt to different interior design needs, as well as providing a stable and long-lasting construction. The top is available in all the variants of the Porada collection – crystal, essence, marble and Rock – and in different finishes to guarantee the customer the highest level of product customisation based on specific style requirements. From a conceptual point of view, the table design is rooted in Roman cultural history, inspired by one of the most iconic architectural elements: the arch. Each table leg, in fact, is a contemporary reinterpretation of a vertically bipartite arch with the two halves positioned opposite each other. In this way, a balanced and symmetrical rhythm develops that represents the primary aesthetic quid of the product.
David was born near Milan. His vision and approach to design comes from a combination of different educational and professional experiences abroad over the years.
After finishing his studies at Politecnico di Milano, he founded in 2007 his own brand DAVID DOLCINI STUDIO, which deals mainly with product and industrial design, interior design, exhibition design and art direction. Some of his works have been selected for international exhibitions and exhibited at Palazzo Arte della Triennale di Milano. In 2012 he opened a new base of operations in Valencia, Spain. His fruitful collaboration with Porada began in 2013 and since then he has designed some of the company’s iconic products, including Aria and Argo. The key points that characterize David’s methodological approach are: accurate and sartorial work, innovation, Italian identity and international openness.
“As to me, design is a magical balance. A process of synthesis able to condense the complexities of a project into an essential and organic product, but still full of meaning.”
