Formafantasma Presents its Dynamic La Casa Dentro Range

Design duo Formafantasma unveils a look at its La Casa Dentro series, which features furniture that explores modernism's focus on the idea of 'femininity.' Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin address these notions through the capsule first unveiled at the Fondazione ICA for Milan Design Week. The team created products that blend utilitarian materials that are complemented by decorative details.

Trimarchi and Farresin explain, "The works highlight modernism's gendered nature and rootedness in a conservative understanding of masculinity. Our project isn't a postmodern pastiche or an ode to campness or kitsch. It is an aromantic attempt to dignify personal memories and what is often culturally vilified – the decorative, the cute, and, by extension of meaning, the feminine."
