The Butterfly Console, designed by Hannes Peer for SEM, is an icon of balance between architecture and design, where form and function merge into a single sculptural expression. Part of the Paesaggio collection, this console draws inspiration from the fluid and visionary structures of Italian engineering, in particular from the Basento bridge designed by Sergio Musmeci in 1967. Hannes Peer reinterprets the concept of a load-bearing structure as a dynamic architectural gesture, transforming the base of the console into an organic interweaving of volumes that seem to be shaped by tension and movement. Its sinuous curves and the lightness of the form create a fascinating contrast with the solidity of the material, making the Butterfly not only a furnishing accessory, but a work of design that transforms the space with its sculptural presence.
SEM
Eight series collections with the quality of a limited edition, designed and made in Italy. Seven designers who share an artisanal approach to design and refinement of details. This is the soul of SEM, a private label born in 2018 to realize thirty years of experience in retail and interior design. SEM translates its philosophy of living into a refined and multifaceted line of furniture, where elegance is also a symptom of the intelligence of the construction solutions. A proposal rich in sartorial details, with a constant attention to the functionality and contemporaneity of industrial design.
