It already has one carved into the marble top made with the sculptural force of water. Its dense pleats, present in the thickness of the top, are not decorations in themselves; they are simply the traces left on the marble by a cnc machine that cuts the top's shape with a thin jet of water. Raised, flowing, and irregular traces that form when the machine operator ventures into cuts of marble thicknesses greater than those for which the machine was designe,d and in which the water jet tends more to free itself from the control of the machine and man. Bufalini continues its journey in marble, integrating its creations in the residential and commercial sectors with its research in the world of design. Bufalini is a company that has worked in the marble and stone sector for more than three hundred years, and is one of the historical names of the long artisan tradition of carrara. The fields of application of marble go beyond the architectural confines of construction and have forever filtered into the sphere of art, where its aesthetics are even more deeply enhanced. The solidity of the stone block becomes a stage for a play on contrasts between colour and the veins, innervated on the surface in a sinuous, unpredictable, and hypnotic motion. The endless potential of marble is welcomed by bufalini to continue its research, bringing marble and design together. See less
