1909 Elephants's Child

Entrance Table

Fabrizio Constanza, the renowned designer, presents the 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table. Inspired by the birth of elephant calves and the changes we face in life, this unique design encourages us to embrace disruption as an opportunity for growth.

The 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table stands out with its composition based on four elements: function, form, color, and light. With minimal lines and sharp angles, the table captures and transforms light, creating captivating color tones. The careful selection of colors enhances the shape and creates an immersive viewer experience. As natural light moves throughout the day, the motionless object comes alive.

This exceptional design is brought to life using MDF form, fiberglass application, and an automobile finish. The technical specifications of the 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table are 1316mm x 355mm x 875mm.

Part of the "Strange Land" series, the 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table is a functional art piece that explores emotions such as solitude, fragility, courage, and endeavor. The series comprises four unique entrance tables, each representing a conceptual animal. The 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table symbolizes the courage and curiosity of a young elephant.

The design process for the 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table involved extensive research and exploration of the subconscious. The designer sketched various forms, eventually identifying four animals within the shapes. These animals were then researched for their significance to humanity and the designer himself. The final forms combine hard straight lines, sharp angles, and reflected light to evoke emotions in the viewer.

Despite the creative and technical challenges faced during the design process, the 1909 Elephants's Child entrance table successfully captures the essence of the designer's subconscious. The object represents the designer's own 6-year-old child, adding a personal touch to the design.

This exceptional design has been recognized with the Bronze A' Design Award in the Fine Arts and Art Installation Design category in 2014.
