Alivar’s Minimal Styling Allows Focus<br />
on Practical Functionality<br />
Story by Debra Kronowitz I Photos courtesy of Anima Domus<br />
Truly practical in today’s modern setting, Alivar delivers a collection<br />
that is livable. Featuring the purest and most minimal styling, with<br />
no excessive decorative elements, the focus is on practical functionality.<br />
Materials are mixed and matched easily, enhancing each<br />
object with its own distinctive personality. For example, an accent on the<br />
quilted texture leather used for the seating and on the stainless-steel used<br />
for the supporting frameworks.<br />
Founded in 1984, Alivar blends minimalistic lines with a modern philosophy<br />
that “each element intrinsically reflects the spirit of the home, making a harmonious<br />
whole. The pure lines enhance the quality of the materials used, in<br />
a minimalist yet highly expressive style.”<br />
Inspired by the idea of re-enacting some of the masterpieces of modern<br />
furnishing and design history, Alivar’s collections range from contemporary<br />
dining room tables, including its newest introduction, the Radar table; TV<br />
support elements; bedrooms, including the signature Boss bed; dining support;<br />
living room and lounge seating concepts, including the Haero and<br />
Bahia sofas and sectionals; coffee, console and side-end tables; bookcases;<br />
mirrors; and a host of other collections that define what today is all<br />
about and what tomorrow will bring.<br />
The company is attentive to technological innovation and ongoing research<br />
in the design and architectural spheres. It has, through time, created collections<br />
such as Brilliant furniture and Home project, enhancing its production<br />
range with furnishings of minimalist design expressed in the language of<br />
materials and color.<br />
The Alivar collection is available at Anima Domus. ◆<br />
