Skin Brass
Rooted in the tradition of artisanal metalworking, Skin Ottone emerges from the meeting of manufacturing knowledge and the language of contemporary design.
Every surface is finished entirely by hand, through a process that makes each piece irreproducible — subtle variations in tone and reflection stand as evidence of the artisanal gesture behind it.
Aluminium is transformed into a material capable of evoking the warmth and depth of brass, carrying a quiet elegance that holds up over time.
BOISERIE
What is Skin Aged Brass Boiserie?
The Skin finish reinterprets boiserie through an unprecedented material: aluminium.
Aluminium becomes an architectural material, turning a traditional wall covering into a surface with a contemporary language.
Designed to adapt to any context, the boiserie can be produced in custom heights, extending to full wall coverage according to the needs of the project.
Completing the system is an exclusively designed top closure — a seemingly discreet detail that reveals the care given to every component, and the pursuit of a flawless result.
Flame reinterprets boiserie through a three-dimensional aluminium surface, where the alternation of elements at different depths creates a refined play of light and shadow.
Enriched with the Skin Ottone finish, Flame gives rise to a wall covering that extends from boiserie to full-height surfaces.
The top closure, designed specifically for the collection, finishes the covering with absolute precision — a detail that expresses the care given to every element of the collection.
BEYOND LINEARITY
The geometry of the Skin patterns goes beyond aesthetic research, becoming a design tool.
Their pattern allows curved and angular walls to be covered with natural continuity, following the architecture and offering a compositional freedom that expands the possibilities of the project.

FAQ
What is the difference between brass and the Skin Aged Brass finish on aluminium?
Brass is significantly heavier than aluminium, weighing almost three times as much. It also tends to darken unpredictably over time unless properly treated.
The Skin Aged Brass finish reproduces the same warmth and character of aged brass—available in both Light Brass and Dark Brass variations—while using a lightweight aluminium substrate.
In addition, the Skin finish offers excellent colour stability over time, preserving its appearance without the uncontrolled oxidation typical of natural brass.
Is the Skin Aged Brass finish suitable for luxury interior design projects?
Yes.
The finish has been developed for high-end interiors, including luxury hotels, boiserie installations, hospitality, yachting and premium residential projects.
The Light Brass version enhances interiors with warm golden reflections, while the Dark Brass version creates greater depth and a richer material contrast, making it ideal for sophisticated architectural spaces.
Is the colour of the finish completely uniform?
No—and intentionally so.
Each surface is handcrafted to achieve carefully controlled tonal variations that recreate the richness and authenticity of hand-worked, naturally aged metal.
Whether in the Light Brass or Dark Brass version, these subtle differences make every piece unique and reinforce the artisanal character of the finish.
