About the projects in the image:
Text by Roberto Zanon

In the foreground (#1) there is the project of a fruit holder (designed with Satomi Yoshida) of wood realized as prototype for the Cultural exhibitions of last "Abitare il Tempo", the Fair held in Verona (Italy) last September. The ideas are to use the fruitholder in one side or upside down and the possibility to put the fruits in the cylindric grooves.

In the back of the friutholders at right (#2) there is the project of a plastic bag (the green one and the purple one). There is the possibility to change the shape and the volume of the bag by moving the special bellows that has the same "mechanism" of the adjustable drinking straws. It colud be realized in one mould for the body and one mould for the top. This project ... looks for sombody who wants to produce it!!!

On the wall there are the projects of three lamps (designed with Satomi Yoshida) using flat coloured glass. These lamps have the characteristic of the dynamism and the relationship with the people that will buy them. In fact those ones at right (#3) have the diffuser that could be placed in different ways, through a rotation of the diffuser. Moreover, two lamps could be placed fit one to the other (as in the photo). The lamps above (#4) have the curved diffuser that could be turned in different positions. The lamps at left (#5) has a decorative tube of copper that is possible to mould as "you" want.

Near the lamps there is the project of a very simple bookcase (#6) or display case that could lives as single piece (in one side or upside down) or combining many pieces; this project uses the wood and the glass.

In the middle of the photo there is a metal stool (#7), designed as furniture-equipment of a beautician; this stool is under construction.

At the left of the stool (#8), a furniture piece designed for the entrance of the house. It has the function of little shelf with drawer, mirror, hanging for the coat, wastepaper. This project is under construction.

On the left wall (#9) an iron clock cutted with the laser machine; it is realized by "Arti e Mestieri" (Italian company) and it price is about $130 (projected with Satomi Yoshida).

Finally, in the background there is a kind of my graphic resume with many sketches of my old projects.
