Dominic is the family of furnishings designed by Federico Angi for Bolzan and inspired by the design approach of Le Corbusier. The name of the product is a citation of the Dom-ino, the maison developed by the father of contemporary architecture, focusing on serial production of homes, where the floor slabs are perched on pillars. Following this method, Dominic becomes a dialogue on a small scale between full and empty zones, where a column supports the tops which, in turn, lend themselves to a range of different uses.
Chiaro di Luna, designed by Ilenia Viscardi for Natevo, is a bedside unit and a lamp at the same time.

The structure is made with a special metal screen that allows the light to flow upward, generating evocative games of light and shadow.
