Don't Take Gaetano Pesce's Waterfall Designs for Granite

The term “range of furniture” was quite literally interpreted by Gaetano Pesce for Milan Design Week 2009.

The craggy, rocky, rugged look is the perfect counterpoint for the luxury fabric and lush padding that waits for the mountain climber that falls into these pieces of furniture. Imagine your mountain home entertainment room filled with this furniture from Gaetano Pesce. Sweet.
