BISTECCA
A chopping board or a scale?
Easy, it’s both!
Bistecca was designed to accelerate and improve cooking methods.
Prepare, cut and weigh.
That’s what you can do with this “smart” chopping board.
The board is made from wood and white Carrara marble, two specific materials used in kitchen tools, different but also similar.
The Bistecca handle is made from wood with a hole in the center, easy and comfortable to handle and hang up.
The marble part is useful not only for cutting but also as a backlight. The highest part of the chopping board has a little LED screen showing the weight of the food.
Artex is the Center for Artistic and Traditional Craftsmanship in Tuscany and promotes innovation and development of artistic and traditional handicrafts.
Each Artex activity is supported by the Steering Committee comprising experts in the field, a partnership allowing the consolidation of synergies with top national and international organizations, as well as constant analysis of the business world and its markets.
Three-year course in INTERIOR DESIGN held at the ISTITUTO EUROPEO DI DESIGN in Florence
Interior design is an articulated system in which the process of designing spaces interacts with those of designing lighting, materials, colours and furnishings.
Every interior designer has to come to terms with the topics of designing hospitality, wellness and commercial interiors, designing lighting and furnishings, all of which are sectors that derive major impulses from changing human behavioural patterns and environmental issues.
