silhouette

silhouette by massimo semeraro from belgium

designer's own words:

To be or not to be, let the silhouette tell it, let the image make as part of interiors.
My design reflects on the one hand the abstract straight forms and on the other hand the organic nature forms.
Actualy the idea came from a surfboard. Holding the board up to a source of light, the foam permits the light to pass through it. If we put an object behind we obtain a silhouette.
As design and construction we have a woodframe with inside white high density foam PU and behind the foam a wooden pannel milled in the form that I create based on organic and nature forms. The finishing layer consist in glasfiber with epoxy resin to ensure a good attachmant of the two materials.
As last part we cover the door with a coating, easy to clean and very durable.
