"Scm Special Prize" at 3rd Design Award

It was held Friday, April 15 at the Salone Satellite the awarding of the 3rd Design Award winners promoted by Riva 1920. At the event, Andrea Aureli, Ceo of Scm Group, presented the “Special Award Scm Group “, which went to the young designer Reinaldo Sanchez Espanol to the stool” Rita “.
This stool, as the designer explains, reflects a concept of sculptural and dynamic sitting, inspired by nature and the movement of the wind. Featuring an original and chic design aesthetic, the product structure is made from a single piece, carved from a single block of wood. This allows efficient use of materials, as well as making the strong and resistant product, while maintaining a good level of comfort. The “special prize Scm Group”, selected by Maurizio and Davide Riva, was awarded the “Rita” stool because of its shape, representative of the rich processing achieved with the advanced Scm technologies in numerical control.
