Giro is a new type of modular concept featuring only 17 elements, yet offering limitless design opportunities. The modules can be stacked and combined side-by-side, lengthwise and diagonally and even made to overhang. Having attracted a great deal of atte
ntion since its successful launch in 2009/10, the concept is now growing vertically. Available in heights of 115.2 and 134.4 cm and featuring coloured varnish, sapele veneer, glass or gold leaf, the objects have a sculptural quality and work equally well
as elegant display cases or flexibly redefinable unique specimens.
The ingenious principle of Giro: it incorporates a special mechanism that allows the stackable elements to be slid around or rotated 180° about their axes. Giro keeps refreshing an
d reinventing itself, its elements standing out from the monotonous surface.
