Italian studio Mediterranea Design specialises in creating environmentally-friendly furniture using cutting edge processes and materials. Alma is a 3D-printed vase designed using computational techniques and manufactured using the Contour Crafting method to build the ceramic body layer by layer.

A striking conversation piece, in Alma, the symbolic charm of the Caltagirone pine cone shines through. A metaphor for the fertility of the mind, producing ideas of renewal and development, Alma's intriguing natural form has an elegant and distinctive character that will bring much to the table.
