Rara Avis
EDITIIO · 2019
“Rara Avis is defined as a person or thing that is unusual or exceptional. The origin of the word comes from Latin and it refers to rare birds.”
Rara Avis is
the result of a dialogue between art and design. Miquel Aparici and Mermelada
Estudio talked about finding a way to converge their works. As a result of
that, they merged the characteristic work of Miquel into a collection of side
tables.
Created from
the assembly of basic geometric shapes, they are hand-made in Spain by master
cabinetmakers who manufacture Spanish handmade guitars and by metalworkers who
specialize in the production of art pieces.
The first
volume is made of French oak and 24K gold-plated steel.
Produced by EDITIIO.
Art direction by Mermelada Estudio.
Designed by Mermelada Estudio and Miquel Aparici.
