Design deals with the most current theme: the afterlife

ESC is an unprecedented collection of urns, tombstones and sacred architecture inspired by the life on the beyond of the human and all living beings and by the mystery that surrounds the whole universe.

After years of reflections, the designer #emanuelgargano, has decided to try his hand at a project dedicated to a really profound theme, a particularly felt theme, linked to the #eschatology: a doctrine aimed at investigating the meaning of the life on the beyond, which has a significant influence on world view and personal daily conduct.

Hence #eschatology, an unprecedented collection, made up of objects conceived and created in symbolic forms, which refer to birth, travel, origin, the cosmos and the eternal. For the first time, the contemporary #design enters a world, that until now has been closely linked to baroque forms and artifice, conceiving an entire collection in an almost revolutionary way. The result is real sculptures that make unique any environment in which they are placed.

ESC philosophy is to overturn and reject that sad idea often linked to death, with the aim of restoring that universal and eternal meaning and consecrating it with the sober elegance of objects of sublime beauty, which deliberately do not recall any religious symbolism.

Forms of the highest #design, coming from archetypal stylistic features, which seem to already exist in the collective unconscious, devoid of any creative artifice and already designed by nature. Strongly evocative are the random and left unaltered colors of the marble, a material that is already molded into its wonderful veins and shades. This is why the choice of the marble from the Trambisera quarry in Pietrasanta (Tuscany, Italy), where exactly 500 years ago the great sculptor Michelangelo went to choose the blocks for his works. The result is unique pieces, handcrafted and totally made in Italy.

ESC Book explains this beautiful project through meaningful photographic images and sonnets, translated into 5 languages: English, Spanish, Russian, Arabic e Chinese.

ESC includes, among its many resources, an architectural firm specializing in the #design and development of temples, chapels, mausoleums and funeral monuments.
