Numen

Design — Doriana and Massimiliano Fuksas

Numen is a glazed porcelain cladding collection designed by Doriana and Massimiliano Fuksas for De Marchi Verona. The project springs from a reflection on natural matter and the irregular geometries of rocks and stones eroded by time.

With Numen, Doriana and Massimiliano Fuksas bring their architectural research into the field of ceramic surfaces through a collection of glazed porcelain cladding designed for De Marchi Verona. The project stems from a reflection on natural matter and the irregular geometries of rocks and stones eroded by time.

The collection is made up of two modular elements that, when combined, generate ever-changing three-dimensional surfaces. The fluid lines and the depth of the reliefs create an architectural landscape made of light, shadow and reflections. The result is a surface capable of turning the wall into a dynamic composition, suitable for residential, hospitality and public projects.
