Edoardo Gherardi graduated in architecture from the IUAV University of Venice and in 2000 founded Gherardi Architetti, with offices in Treviso and Castelfranco Veneto. His work spans urban, interior, product and naval design, with projects in Switzerland, Luxembourg and Qatar; in 2021 he was invited to the 17th Venice Biennale of Architecture with the exhibition "Escapology," and his work has been selected for the Compasso d'Oro. He has been art director of Varaschin since 2021. For the company he designed FLEXION, a family of tables defined by a curved stem, in single or double configuration, carrying round, elliptical or organic tops; a coffee table condenses the same silhouette. NOSS pairs a powder-coated aluminium seat with a hand-woven synthetic rope backrest that runs from armrest to armrest as one continuous ribbon, across a dining armchair, an easy chair and a bar stool.
