Urbi et Orbi presents the Medius Terra collection, a captivating celebration of the Mediterranean’s soul. More than just a collection, it embodies our essence – a testament to the enduring character of this remarkable region.
Inspired by the Genius Loci, the spirit of the place, Medius Terra delves into the heart of the Mediterranean. It’s an ode to the sun-drenched landscapes, the vibrant cultures, and the timeless traditions that weave the fabric of this cherished sea and its surrounding lands.
The distinctiveness of this collection arises from the fusion of diverse perspectives brought forth by the three contributing designers: Gian Paolo Venier of OTTO Studio, Sotiris Lazou Design Studio, and CTRLZAK.
Three distinct chapters – Gea, Zoe, and Forma – which come together in harmonious conversation to encapsulate the Medius Terra collection.
- Gea, represents the very essence of the Mediterranean. It’s a ride designed to awaken the senses and build connections with the beauty that surrounds us, capturing the essence of the soil, the landscape, the flora, and the fauna in a sensory experience.
- Zoe, delves into the human spirit that thrives in this region. It’s a celebration of everything that we are, our existence, our vitality, our culture, our way of life. Even for those who haven’t experienced it firsthand, the collection evokes a profound connection, a feeling of truly being there.
- Forma focuses on the aesthetics that define the Mediterranean. It’s a study of the forms, the shapes, the cohesiveness, the architecture, a silent storyteller whispering tales of the region’s architectural heritage.
The uniqueness of Medius Terra lies in the beautiful synergy between these diverse perspectives. As shapes communicate, hues characterize, and touch is sensed, emotions, aromas, and flavors of the Mediterranean, spring to mind, creating a collection that transcends the visual, transporting you to the heart of this captivating region.
Medius Terra is a testament to the enduring power of nature and human craftsmanship. It’s a collection shaped by the elements, meticulously handcrafted with a focus on detail, a hallmark of Urbi et Orbi.
Shaped by nature and bare hands.
