We can go back as early as 4th Century BC China to find room separators. They allowed people of that time to create homogeneous spaces, dedicated to differentiated practices of use. One ceremonial, one private.

When we divide our interiors, we are making a conscious effort to bring something dynamic to a room, to the way we live and the way we respond to the challenges that our interiors face. In essence, a physical partition, like Hide Me, is representing the way we also choose to live our lives. We choose to move from one area to another in order to better manage each thing in separation.

And this is what Gino Carollo has managed to do. In Hide Me, he has created two different types of separation, one from the ground, the other from the ceiling. Each panel is a combination of more materials: zebrano or eucalyptus wood, mirror, varnished wood and metal inserts. By making this obvious contrast, this obvious separation so detailed and yet so measured it reflects our own internal needs and interior acknowledgements.

Già nella Cina del IV secolo AC potevamo trovare i separè. Consentivano alle persone di quell’epoca di creare spazi omogenei dedicati a diverse usanze. Una cerimoniale, una privata.

Quando dividiamo i nostri spazi interni, facciamo uno sforzo consapevole per creare qualcosa di dinamico nella stanza, nel modo in cui viviamo e nel modo in cui rispondiamo alle sfide che i nostri spazi interni devono affrontare. In sostanza, una separazione fisica, tipo Hide Me, rappresenta anche un modo in cui decidiamo di vivere le nostre vite. Decidiamo di spostarci da una zona all’altra per riuscire a gestire al meglio ogni cosa in modo distinto. Questo è quello che Gino Carollo è riuscito a fare. Con Hide Me, ha creato due diversi tipi di separazione, uno dal pavimento e l’altro dal soffitto. In ogni pannello sono combinati più materiali: legno zebrano o di eucalipto, specchi, legno verniciato o inserti di metallo.

Con questo contrasto netto, questa netta separazione così dettagliata, ma allo stesso tempo così misurata, riflette i nostri bisogni e riconoscimenti interiori.
