| Sumario: | [EN] Pedro Miralles Claver, Valencian architect and designer, with a brief career in which he managed to leave an extensive legacy, elegant and magnificent designs marked by his strong personality. He found its foundations in the rigor of Neoclassicism, and the formal and material sumptuousness Art Deco. Reflection, the timelessness, the perceived quality of the proportions, the rediscovery of classical types and quality materials are features which define each of his objects. One expression of this thought is the set of sideboard and dresser Poynton, which was designed to be part of the Azimut collection, promoted in 1988 by Artespaña. Taking as reference the aesthetic value of the late nineteenth century, Miralles created a set of furniture, for whose manufacture he specified a high quality materials like oak and ebony macassar, on which applied decorative-based of fine marquetry and inlays of precious materials, all worked using traditional methods, controlling even the most detail, and finished on top with a “trompe-l'oeil” drawing. The whole final design made evident the interest of Pedro to recover the constructive elements from ancient cultures and give them new meanings. |
