Generated by the movement of a square module in space to develop objects that vary in terms of their materials, colours and functional uses, the Modern system of units, worktops and shelves created by Piero Lissoni in 1997 returns and plays a key role in the Porro presentation at the Milan Salone del Mobile 2010.
Reworked across-the-board with reduced thicknesses, a new graphic look, different types of base, new finishes, more immediate opening solutions and configurations made-to-measure for contemporary living and working spaces, it was the main protagonist of both the “This is a box” display at the fair and the “Still Life, Moving Life” installation at the showroom at Via Durini 15.
In the first case in a black and white vein as per the Piero Lissoni mood, in the second case playing on the contrast with the colours of yellow, magenta, cyan and black, Modern was placed centre stage to show the endless possibilities for developing this flexible system.
