iDog, Umbrella Holder by Elda Bellone

Posted by on Nov 29, 2010 in DESIGN, ITALIANS DO IT BETTER

iDog is a part of  a limited edition of a sculpture design series “For Adult Only”, created by Elda Bellone  for Scoope Design and manufactured in Italy. iDog is made in white lacquered iron, it is strong and tender at the same time, it is not a real toy, even if seems so, it is essentially a sculpture-design concept about shape and function; this bones dog shape , skinless, unfinished,  became a design object when it is able to be used, in fact it can be an umbrella stand, a stool, an ottoman, a magazine rack, a posters container… iDog wants to explore the boundary between objects of sculpture  and design , trying to realize a new  form-function idea, not to be expressed but to be interpreted.
