An Exploration of Form through Sensitivity, Intention, and the Pursuit of Beauty
“Presence. That can be basically called “love”. We live in times where our time and attention are stolen from us. If through my designs I can create a moment of surprise, happiness, pause or connection that brings about presence, I have achieved my goal.”
Mario Milana

SIRO is a sculptural credenza developed in collaboration with a family of Italian artisans through an extended process of research, exchange, and making. Crafted in pear wood, the piece explores movement within a material traditionally associated with solidity, introducing fluidity through a sequence of curved modular elements.
The continuous rhythm of the form recalls waves and the quiet merging of individual parts into a unified whole. Each module remains distinct while becoming part of a larger composition.
The production combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary techniques, allowing the material to move beyond conventional forms while preserving the tactile quality and precision of handmade work.
