SELETTI | ESTETICO QUOTIDIANO

Everyday objects are often overlooked, seen as simple and functional. But in the hands of Alessandro Zambelli and Seletti, even the most humble forms become ironic tributes to function and beauty. The Estetico Quotidiano collection celebrates the familiar by turning disposable aesthetics into lasting icons. With humor, elegance, and a touch of design subversion, this collection redefines what “ordinary” means—bringing wit and style to the table and beyond.

The Poetry of the Disposable Made Eternal

From the instantly recognizable shape of a plastic bottle to the archetypal paper basket, these pieces designed by Alessandro Zambelli for Seletti play with form while honoring memory. The Estetico Quotidiano porcelain basket/centerpiece is not just a functional item: it’s a sculptural nod to the ephemeral, transformed into a porcelain centerpiece with style and attitude. Equally emblematic, the Estetico Quotidiano The Bottle clear glass bottle captures the essence of mass-produced water containers and turns them into artistic carafes for everyday use.

Table Rituals with a Twist

This Seletti tableware collection is rich in reinterpretations of classic tableware. Think of elegant glasses with a utilitarian look, or porcelain mugs and cups that mimic the silhouette of plastic and paper drinkware. These aren’t gimmicks; they’re thoughtful, ironic gestures that elevate the act of drinking and serving. From designer plates shaped like fast-food trays to quirky bowls that feel both nostalgic and sculptural, everything tells a story of transformation.

Design That Organizes and Surprises

The functionality continues in the kitchen with cutting boards and trays inspired by the throwaway but made to last. Storage becomes art with baskets and containers that reinterpret disposable food packaging as decorative home pieces. Even the Estetico Quotidiano The Bottle oil/vinegar container carries this concept, shaped like a supermarket bottle, but crafted in glass and meant for the elegant table.

Cook, Pour, Display

This line doesn't shy away from function. The cookware echoes industrial shapes with artistic flair, while drinkware surprises with printed textures and playful references. The bottles and jugs maintain the DNA of the collection: simple, iconic, and unexpectedly luxurious. Whether you're preparing dinner or simply displaying objects on a shelf, every piece brings meaning and style to your space.
