Victor Vasilev – Srebro

SREBRO

 

“The design is closely connected with the material which was proposed to me and I do believe that the final outline cannot be separated from the specific features of silver.

SREBRO, which means SILVER in Slavic languages, comes from some simple considerations:

Sustainability, it is a durable object (not disposable) consisting in a refillable perfume bottle;

Her Majesty Geometry, the (round-shaped) outline is simple and it highlights the imposing size with no futile distractions;

Memory of the unconscious, the sprayer is the part that makes us easily perceive just how functional the object is.”
