Via Cesare Correnti, 26

In the occasion of Salone del Mobile, Atelier VM hosts Woodyzoody.

Woodyzoody was born from an idea of Giulio Iacchetti and it presents itself as a wood animal publisher; it is the result of the challenge that 12 designers have decided to pick participating to this coral project. Here opinions and ideas have been shared to give birth to a first collection of animals: the chick, the platypus, the chicken, the hippopotamus, the sperm whale, the beaver, the toucan, the woodpecker, the fox, the octopus, the ray and the ostrich.

The Woodyzoody animals have been created following a personal and aesthetic research by each designer and they all have one common element: every piece is turned and then worked/perfected by the numerical control machine.

The chosen woods for the collection come from different parts of the world: from Europe to Oceania through North and South America; every animal is associated with the wood of his native continent, so that the eye, the touch and the sense of smell perceive different suggestions and feelings.


The first Woodyzoody collection is a project realized toghether with: Federico Angi, Giorgio Biscaro, Francesco Faccin, Odo Fioravanti, Giulio Iacchetti, Elia Mangia, Giacomo Moor, Lanzavecchia&Wai, Lorenz+Kaz, Lorenzo Palmeri, Matteo Ragni, Paolo Ulian.
