T4 seating system & Big Red

by UMA / A-N-D / CC-TAPIS

Set to inhabit the remarkable Villa Bagatti Valsecchi, A-N-D presents Floor-to-Ceiling utilizing new iterations of pre-existing series adapted to accommodate the 16th-century historical Milanese architecture, while leaving it unscathed. Co-existing within the room alongside fellow innovative designers, the luminaires will be displayed throughout the collaborative space celebrating elegance in materiality and form. Building upon the success of last year’s debut, Uma Objects returns for its second appearance at Alcova, unveiling two captivating collections with design studio Holloway Li: the T4 seating system and the striking Big Red table and bench set.

The T4 seating system, by the visionary minds at Holloway Li, represents a progression from last year’s single-seat collection. Designed for versatility, the T4 sofa is modular, offering a dynamic solution for gatherings of all sizes. Each piece is meticulously hand-finished from durable fibreglass in Uma Objects factory in Izmir, and upholstered with locally sourced fabrics.

Embodying a bold aesthetic inspired by the exuberance of the 90s, Holloway Li describes the design as a harmonious blend of retro charm and 90s optimism.

Meanwhile, the Big Red table and bench set, a new collaborative creation between Uma Objects and Holloway Li, epitomises craftsmanship and playfulness. Constructed akin to a surfboard, with a foam core and infusion-mould
