With BORING CACTUS®, the brilliance of the original creation by Drocco and Mello is now transformed into a gray tone with a matte finish: instead of continuing the search for the most innovative and otherworldly creations, Gufram embraces monotony and repetitiveness—for once! A radical attempt to transform boredom into the brand’s typical vibrancy. Added to the Gufram collection in an unlimited edition, BORING CACTUS® can easily adapt to any environment. It is easy to imagine in an eclectic home, but also in a minimalist one. In other words, this new edition of the CACTUS® once again showcases the extraordinary adaptability of this piece, now a functional coat rack, now a superb sculpture. CACTUS® by Gufram is an imposing testament to Italian radical design. Originally conceived by designers Guido Drocco and Franco Mello as an extravagant reinterpretation of a coat rack, this 1972 creation has since established itself as one of the most iconic pieces in the history of the company. As tall as a human, its unmistakable silhouette has revolutionized, on a global scale, the way domestic spaces and interior design are conceived. Each CACTUS® is crafted from flexible polyurethane and retains the same iconic shape as the original design. It features four bent arms, meticulously refined and hand-painted with Guflac, Gufram’s trademark paint finish. This coating gives CACTUS® a soft yet durable covering, capable of lasting for many years without losing its original charm.
