Ghigos - Ideas Bit-Factory - Fan - Il Generoso

The object is part of the “Be-Fan” collection. The fans feature alienating materic and decorative inserts that amaze the viewer with unexpected anomalies. It is a reinterpretation in contemporary taste of a traditional symbol which is also a souvenir distributed at the first Universal Exposition in history. Manufactured in Digital Fabrication. Dimensions: closed 19x5. 5 cm, open 19x26 cm Made using modern laser-cut technologies on laminate. The collection was exhibited during the Salone del Mobile 2015 (https: //ghigos. com/ghigos-in-cerca-di-ideas/) at the Cloisters of the Church of San Marco (in Brera Design District) and during the Milan Design Week 2019 with inauguration and opening by “La Repubblica del Design” (www. repubblicadeldesign. it) . The women’s fans collection, branded as “Ideas Bit-factory”, investigates the fans communicative function in the past, and offers a reinterpretation of them in a modern perspective. Each fan has specific features that suggest its usage and convey various attitudes, ranging from harmless looks to far more spicy intentions. The collection blends aesthetics, language and naughtiness in these incredibly expressive objects.
