Metal Fossil as the marks left behind.
Metal Fossil as formed by a variety of geological processes.
Metal Fossil as a process inspired from nature.
Studio Nucleo plays on the presumption of designing the future of its objects,
making them fossils of themselves.
As with the trace fossils where we find the imprint of the original item,
in the same way the implementation process that creates
the object leads to the destruction of its original.
The Fossil tables are realized with a galvanic process,
the tables consists of a single block that accurately traces
the handmade object from which they take shape.
Nickel coffee table introduce a new chapter of unique pieces
in the fossil project inspired by the metal ore.
