UNNO Gallery presents its first collaboration with renowned designer Mark Grattan, debuting THICK at Milano Design Week 2024. Mark Grattan, celebrated for his distinctive design, with his last work reveals a deep connection with Mexico and Latin American culture.

The collection's genesis lies in a long-time desire to collaborate with the gallery and a simple promise. The inspiration stemmed from a small wall mounted cabinet Mark designed and built for his NYC apartment, sparking the conceptual evolution of the entire collection.

Grattan introduces an unexpected playful and animated aesthetic, deviating from his usual serious and rigid methodology in his past work. The pieces feature a unique visual elasticity of stretching forms, simple, but compelling, yet still maintaining his signature details such as repetition, rounded edge profiles and chrome details. The overall outline of the work introduces a new dimension, characterized by a cheerful and lively quality.

The collection, meticulously crafted in his New York Studio, showcases Grattan's innovative hands-on execution of curved wood forms and complex joinery. The resulting forms are high gloss lacquered, presenting a monolithic yet organic appearance.
