CONTROLUCE / SCRIGNO
DESIGN BY EGIDIO PANZERA
“ Controluce was born from a reflection , together with Scrigno , on the relationship between architecture and light . If the wall , for Scrigno , has become an opportunity to connect and create spaces , interpreting the archetype of the threshold with light has meant for me , reproposing the image of drafts of light passing through the wall around a semiclosed door . The theme of backlighting has been investigated by many architects in the past to create emotional , poetic , ascetic spaces . I think of the Unesco Meditation Space , the Chapel of Ronchamp , or the Duomo Vecchio in Brescia . For Scrigno ’ s doors , the light would not only have to illuminate , but to be an emotional narrative , to place itself between wall and doorway ”. Egidio Panzera
Developed by Scrigno , a leading company in opening solutions , and designed by Egidio Panzera , Controluce represents a new way of interpreting the transition between different living spaces with an unprecedented use of light that is declined in its relationship with shadow , producing a striking and impressive lighting frame around the door .
