During his tenure as artistic director of the Furniture Gemona Fantoni, Scoccimarro design the furnishings for the various houses of Friuli. Here insert a brief description and some photos of some projects that I managed to recover from the book published by the City of Udine "The Mobile Friulano between tradition and innovation", Museum of Arts and Popular Traditions Friuli, 1989.
table with chair, 1929.
This small sitting area with chairs, which accompanies a library for the Encyclopedia Treccani, has a very simple and light, geometric forms and play on organic compounds. Flat surfaces are enhanced by the grain of the wood and the elegant movements of the upper and chairs in the elegant work carried out on the table at two levels.
There are several stylistic echoes, fine surface profiles and Deco-style array of twentieth-century volumes, but the outcomes of particular compositional harmony.
Dining Room and Bedroom, 1932.
All of this furniture goes back to the models presented for the previous exposures, at Monza in 1930 and the year after that of Gemona. According to the concept of modern house, the furniture of simple and modest are set in spacious rooms to offer an image of order and composure. Basic geometric shapes of the lines of the individual parts whose volumes are a clear reference to the heavy style of the twentieth century.
It is of particular interest is the newly developed multi-purpose swivel base stand placed between the two chairs in the living room.
Bedroom, 1927-28.
In this bedroom, built for the family in August, shows the contrast between the heavy mass displacement and the working surface which is the decorative element of the overall composition. Even in this case is affected by the echoes of Deco style in the designs of the tapestries that are in the lines of the day bed and small table, but also in the twentieth century the subject line and strict square shapes.
