From 4 to 10 September, Cosentino is the protagonist of some special appointments during the Fuorisalone presenting a new design project realized in Dekton®, in collaboration with Mariana and Gustavo Martini. In addition, the Spanish multinational opens the door of a new Cosentino City, completely restyled with Dekton® and Silestone® surfaces, as well as a number of cutting-edge technological innovations. The showroom hosts also some events dedicated to the public and to the architects and interior designers.

In collaboration with designers Mariana and Gustavo Martini, Cosentino presents a new project called “O”, an elegant table, refined and extremely durable and functional piece of design, created with the ultracompact Dekton® surface. Specifically designed for residential projects, the piece is intended to be a symbol of togetherness and outdoor conviviality. An aim achieved through the special technical features of this material, indispensable for outdoors. Dekton® features enhanced mechanical qualities and resistance to chemical agents, UV rays and extreme temperatures, which do not change the colour or shape of objects. Add to this the material’s low moisture absorption and low maintenance requirements for a highly versatile, ‘ever-lasting’ solution that remains perfectly intact and unchanged over time, whatever the external conditions.
For the designers, the name and shape of the project are inspired by the concept of a circle, or rather ‘a closed circle’, something that alludes to a private, intimate meeting place for spending time together and creating special closeness. A table designed to ‘strengthen the value bonds’ during the special moments we share with the people we live with or who enter our homes.

A round table is communal with everything in easy reach; there are no divisions but an intentional closeness. A circle that expresses the essence of sharing, emphasised even further by the idea of a bench instead of chairs. Not an individual place but another space to share allowing close contact, brushing shoulders, bringing everyone together on the same level, eliminating every notion of distance.
