The trophy for the Archiproducts Design Awards 2018 was a limited-edition object which mimicked the shape of its logo. We were asked to transmit the power of the brand-designer connection in a very visual way. Our inspiration was the Möbius strip, an out-of-this-world topological space with an endless artistic potential. In a Möbius strip, up becomes down, in becomes out, you walk and walk around its bidimensional surface and end up where you started. Its math is so complicated to grasp as it is fascinating. Like the famous strip, the trophy was conceived as a seamless object: a single metal slab crafted to reproduce the Award concept. The result is a game of light and shadows, of full and empty spaces, of glossy and raspy finishings. A shiny object of desire.
