( kroma )
3
The Kroma collection by Driade, designed by Antonia Astori around 1980, unfolds as a measured exploration of furniture as architecture, where each piece is conceived as a composition of planes rather than a singular object. Defined by crisp geometries, lacquered surfaces, and deliberate chromatic contrasts, the collection plays with balance and rhythm, turning tables, consoles, and storage elements into spatial structures that articulate the room. Forms appear both rigorous and expressive, with color used not as decoration but as a structural element that emphasizes intersections and volumes. With its quiet radicalism and architectural clarity, Kroma transforms functional furniture into a disciplined yet poetic statement of Italian postmodern design.
