“From rocks into sand, sand into dunes, and dunes into the glass. Time changes the way we see the world; it bends a straight line into a curve, it changes us, and this morph stands for the way I see the world.”

The idea of glass as a sign of progress is not new; it was commercially imposed in the Portuguese govern for the Brazilian colony in 1810. In 1851 was presented as a revolutionary material at The Crystal Palace and is a crucial idea on Le Corbusier's five points and many posterior modernist buildings.
Recchia's work brings glass with a new approach; new technics he developed with his team of artisans. Glass, already produced for millennia, is the substantial material in his designs, assuming structural function. Fragile, texturized, and translucent, but also firm, heavy and organic.

The Morfa series was inspired by the understanding of glass as a malleable material. The collection comprises five side table models, varying in size and shape. Glass is Recchia's material of choice for most of his creations, exploring how time transforms the material

The processes of fusing glass and metal are handmade, allowing variations in color, texture, and slight changes in size and weight. The glass bubbles are part of the handmade production process; the bubbles' quantity and size are uncontrollable variables – responses to the artisan's actions.
