Matteo Cibic Studio
Matteo Cibic Studio is a creative experimental lab. In the past 15 years Matteo and his team developed products and creative ideas for international companies, private collectors and cultural institutions.
“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.”
Pushing the boundaries of shape and form, Matteo’s ANIMAGIC is a celebration of animal forms in anthropomorphous design. An odd mix of humour, luxury and utility, these pieces go beyond being furniture – they are magical, sculptural objects, almost life like, that make you smile every time you glance at them. Scarlet Splendour brings to you Matteo Cibic’s ANIMAGIC, an odd collaboration of humour and luxury, handcrafted in animal forms.
CIUCO
It’s a donkey’s world! Meet the dashing Ciuco, a gentleman in his own right. This piece from Matteo’s Animagic collection challenges stereotypes as it gleams in its andromorphous glory. Cast in brass and crafted with white resin inlay, the Ciuco cabinet adds a bit of magic to any space it takes up. Behind the tuxedo lies a spacious cabinet which can hold a large bar or crockery.
The Ciuco Cabinet has a large brass donkey head that sits atop a brass and resin lined shirt. The buttons are knobs to open the tuxedo revealing a spacious cabinet within. A sculptural decadent conversation – Plywood, brass, resin – 88 x 70 x 216cm
MIMI
Make way for some magic with Mimi, with her giant rabbit ears and plump belly. Whimsical, utilitarian and eclectic, the Mimi cabinet celebrates life, love and luxury all in one statement piece of furniture. The ears are a beautiful mix of brass and white resin sitting atop the brass lined spacious cabinet on dainty legs.
The Mimi Cabinet is a plump white cabinet with giant ears and tall dainty legs. Rich brass trims add opulence. A charming statement piece in any interior space – Plywood and brass – 135 x 63 x 240cm
