A WORLD OF THINGS

To consider the world where he lives a "world of things" is the most specific condition of man. Concrete things and abstract things, real things and imaginary things, sacred things and profane things, useful things and unecessary things, good thingsa and bad things. The Design arrived, and things have found a new nature: it was not more a question of use or possession anymore, a question of context or nature. From that moment the (artificial) wolrd was divided in a world of ordinary things and a world of extraordinary things. Of course, the ordinary things are usefule, ever equal to themselves, neutral and without "opinion". While the extraordinary things are interesting, "beautiful", able to change the context and even to change the people that interact with them! But this distinction, able to improve the mre structured semantic issues, is more valued by those who judge the Design than those who make Design! And Bruno Munari (who really made Design) said that the true full meaning is not the uncommones but it is in the essential balance between sense and sign: "..why the real evolutions are made while nobody realizise them".
Therefore,without anybody realizing it,COVO has reached a new colection of forniture objects.The long experience,expressed in the strong identity and in the wise union between shape and content,is the instrument of COVO to observe with attention the Design world:a world of those "exceptional"things that fill more people's fantasy than their houses.
And at the moment of choice,between ordinary things or extraordinary things,COVO has decided to travel along another way,the personal one:the way of "simple" both functions and shapes.But if to complicate is easy,to simplify is more difficult,because there is the risk of banality. Instead the things by COVO ar neither banal nor complicated,they are not common.
They are created to function well and,also, to answer to the human need of emotions,of images to build a personal story of life. And so the Design world,frm now on,there aren't only ordinary things and extraordinary things,but also the "not common things" by COVO.
