This Magazine rack  ‘’PRESS’’ was designed by Enzo Mari in 1999 for Rexite Milano. 

‘’PRESS’’ is a minimalistic and discrete design that focus on the essential forms, expressed by the simple lines drawn by means of the chromed steel rod.‎ With this PRESS magazine Mari incorporated ideas of arts and crafts practices. The elegant and classic-looking curves symbolize art. While the refined steel techniques used in the production of this magazine rack symbolize craftsmanship. These two features make this a typical and somehow autobiographical Mari design object as Mari stood for quality, art and craftsmanship, bringing down the product to an essence opposing the idea that good design is a privilege for the wealthy. 

The rack is in perfect condition and was not used before. 

About the designer:
Enzo Mari (1932 - 2020) was an Italian modernist artist and furniture designer who is known to have influenced many generations of industrial designers. One of the most famous Italian designers ever lived. He started his activity with studies on visual perception and then focused his attention on games for children, graphics, design and architecture. He was awarded the Compasso d'Oro in 1967, 1979, 1987 and in 2001 for his table Tavolo legato. In 2001 he published the book Progetto e passione (Project and passion) which analyses the design on a wider cultural horizon. Mari is the author of over 1500 objects, made for major Italian companies. Among these, there are Zanotta, Driade, Alessi, Danese, Artemide, Olivetti, Ideal Standard, Flou, Estel, Lema and Robots. Enzo Mari died on 19 October 2020, at the age of 88, and became, together with his wife, a victim of the corona pandemic.
