Odette

Each element of Odette has been designed pursuing this idea of visual lightness that is also and above all a technical achievement: the elliptical sections of solid walnut wood reduced to a minimum, the tapered legs with delicate transitions, the tapered and thinned crosspieces.
The top is available in glass (transparent, smoky or bronzed) or in marble, placed flush with the wooden frame. For this second version, a specific processing system was developed which makes it possible to obtain sheets of only 8mm thickness, compared to the 20mm found in other products. By reducing the weight of the object, it was possible to fit the top perfectly into the wooden frame.
The key is conceiving and then producing a shape that is visually light but which at the same time ensures a structurally robust construction that is stable in use and durable over time. In Odette, according to the designers of DRAW Studio, “two opposing souls coexist: on one hand the contemporary cleanness of the lines, on the other the tradition of memory, the wood worked in the Italian way, and the sinuous transitions that are a nod to the masters of the past. We love to try our hand at pieces that contain this dialectic: the obsession with time and the idea of being able to stop it in a gesture, in a form, in an object. It is like a great opera or a great dance choreography, which in its repetition over the years takes on a timeless dimension”.
