Eugenia, Wine Cooler

The Eugenia wine cooler interprets the art of wine service in a refined and elegant manner. Its decagonal structure lends the volume of the object both a sculptural and functional dimension. The conical handles, integrated in the side profiles, aid in picking up and carrying the cooler, while maintaining the rigorous design. Designed to hold one champagne bottle or two wine bottles, it meets contemporary hospitality requirements, where variety and versatility are part of the experience.

The name is a tribute to Alberto Alessi's winery, &quotLa signora Eugenia e il passero solitario&quot, whose products come in a bottle inspired by a design by Leonardo da Vinci. Taking his cue from this bottle, Naoto Fukasawa developed a set characterised by pure, essential design, featuring a line with an obtuse angle, &quotDonkaku&quot in Japanese, which becomes the formal characteristic of the entire set.
