In the amazing setting of Apulia, among the olive trees and the sea, was born Alessandra Ziccolella, a young interior designer who has made of her passion her job.
A passion that has transformed itself in creating her own brand, A.zetaDESIGN, a little reality that in small steps is making room in the design world and is characterized by a production based on natural and "recovered" materials.
Each project comes to life from an element, volume or shape, which is then deconstructed through the use of lines to cut, slide and finally recreate. At the beginning there is always a need that turns into emotion, and a creative path that drives the young artist throughout the design process. Every object, every piece of furniture, once transformed into matter, will come in contact with the human being, and it is important for Alessandra to know the "final scene" as if she was building a movie set.

MIETTA is the result of this need: a traditional table with a board and four orthogonal legs, deconstructed and re-elaborated in shapes and hierarchy. The lines cut, the sections slide and everything goes back to a new equilibrium where the symmetry disappears. The central element, in iron, is a sculpture and it works as base for the whole table.
The table boards are above the structure and highlight the thickness, those are fullfilled of the fascinating history of the venetian lagoon, where they were for decades.
Alessandra describes the idea that she then transformed into reality: “One day not long ago, I imagined you while you were eating. I thought of you picking your energies up, along with your last rushed sip of coffee.
I heard the sound of the fork gently falling on the table.
I listened to the tapping of your fingers in rhythm to your favourite song. I watched your legs crossing and your arms stretching as if you were going to grab something. I felt your eyes focused on reading the newspaper, and your coat lying down almost waiting to be taken away by the warmth of your hands, in the cold winter.”
Not just a design object, but a story told through the material.. It is waiting for you at our showroom, in via Pordoi, 8 in Baranzate.
