Ora Lattea - Denis Guidone - Nava design
La Ora Lattea, designed by Denis Guidone, is the most minimalist watch in Nava Design Collection. Leading the subtraction principle to its maximum, (What is not the watch), Denis has removed all what had no sense excepting reading time. It lasts only 2 dots that give us hours and minutes and a dot for the axle. The watch is white (Lattea) and the case black.

Fascinated since the beginning by the rifor and thought of AG FRONZONI, with the passing of the time he develops a new rigor out of the rules. “For Denis Guidone, materiality and function seem to be consistently and exquisitely reduced to a conceptual premise where use becomes the embodiment of form – in fact, idea, service, and aesthetic emerge in his work as inseparable. ” James Wines (SITE architecture NY)
