Alessi Mediterraneo Collection - When the Aesthetic and Functional Join Hands
The hallmark of a fine design is how it can be used over and over again. Yet, true creativity ensures that the exercise is not mere repetition. Alessi has demonstrated that perfectly with the Mediterraneo collection. These household items run the gamut from kitchen containers to tooth brush holders. Take a look…
A kitchen box with a hermetic lid could be just a bland container. Alessi’s Mediterraneo design raises this ordinary object to a piece of fine decor. The stainless steel lid both seals to perfection and provides a finishing touch of beauty. The tendrils along the glass jar provide a look that turns your kitchen into a European paradise.
This design motif is so flexible it works perfectly not just with containers but with utensils, as well. The Mediterraneo Salad Set is an excellent example. The tendrils are pierced into the salad mixing spoon. They form the tines in the fork. That functional incorporation of the design is so seamless you can’t imagine these items without it. The result? A perfect pair of kitchen tools that you’ll want to leave out of the drawer.
That same pair of values are incorporated into the Alessi Mediterraneo Napkin Holder. Whether done in polished stainless steel or lovely red epoxy, the open design lets your napkin pattern show through. At the same time, you have a decorative object for the table that you’ll never want to put away. As a centerpiece for your dining room table, this item is unsurpassed.
Even ordinary wall hooks can transform from nothing but functional objects into hanging works of art. The stainless steel Mediterraneo fingers form a sturdy prong for your jacket or umbrella. But these hooks are so attractive you’ll be reluctant to cover them up! Better buy one for use, the other for display. One look at these and suddenly you’ll find a half-dozen places that simply must have wall hooks.
Let that same effect diffuse into your bathroom. The Mediterraneo Cup Holder offers an open, airy design that complements rather than overwhelms. The branches form sturdy sides while the tendrils top off the holder. The combination is once again an ideal blending of the practical and the beautiful, an Alessi hallmark.
Then, of course, there is the Mediterraneo toothbrush holder mentioned at the outset. How many times have you endured a boring design in this little item? Break free and embrace an organic look that brings a smile to your face every time you use it.
Look around your home and you’ll find opportunities galore to decorate. When you do, give yourself the gift of a perfect blend of utility and beauty. Create the aura of the finest hotels of southern Europe by opting for Alessi’s Mediterraneo collection. Alessi has provided you with a dozen different easy ways to do that. Easy. Functional.
