The medieval origin of the Earth symbol refers to the four compass points, the four seasons, the four corners of the world and the Christian cross, with all its intrinsic meanings.
Mother Earth is our source of inspiration as well as the origin of all our progress, evolution and knowledge. Mankind draw from the earth and its amorphous matter what they can shape and transform.
When aesthetics meets beauty and creativity, matter becomes art.
When art meets practical functionality, matter becomes design.
Officine Opus was born from an idea by OPUS under the artistic direction of Ossigeno – Arch. Giacomo Ortenzi.
A new integrated system made of different natural matters, ranging from wood to terracotta and lime, blended by a wide selection of colours. An eco-friendly and innovative solution able to re-design living interiors. A functional and highly creative product.
Design details, able to rethink the look of an environment with a modern but soft touch of a timeless allure. Details capable of redefining the style of a space, like a shoe does with a dress.
Cottofficina consists of white clay paste successively coloured with a particular mixture of oxide minerals added during the grinding operation. Through this process, a pleasant skin effect of natural terracotta is obtained. Cottofficina is available in a 6-colour palette.
Natural lime-based continuous surfaces with a substantial material effect, refined with a 100% non-toxic beeswax-based treatment. Naturaofficina is available in a 20-colour palette (6 are derived by Cottofficina).
Legnofficina reinterprets the wood, an archetypical component of domestic environments: it has been renovated by means of painting procedures that confer a particularly ‘soul’ feature, in a total chromatic continuity with Cottofficina and Naturaofficina.
