DESIGNERS
MARTA SANSONI
Marta Sansoni, an architect and designer living in Florence (Italy), graduated in architecture in 1990.
She participated in several national and international design exhibitions and competitions: among these, the 1990 Memory Containers with Alessi.
In the field of architecture, she has realized projects for new buildings in Florence and many projects of interior architectural design for private houses, shops, restaurants coffee shops, wine-bars and offices in Italy and abroad.

DESIGN CSA .
The Alessi Research Centre (CSA) was set up in 1990 for two purposes: to draw up theoretical papers on topics associated with objects (to be published as books), and to coordinate work with young designers. Up until that time Alessi had only worked with “major designers”, and I felt a certain degree of responsibility towards young, upcoming designers. Alberto Alessi

STORY
Fretwork is part of the broader theme of decoration that has accompanied human history since its origins. Of particular interest was the use of fretwork in the early industrial era, beginning in the second half of the 1800s, when the application of decorative, naturalistic or geometric motifs were used to give greater dignity to early industrial products.
CACTUS! by Marta Sansoni is a significant example of Alessi's achievements with this workmanship: an intricate forest of cactus needles, a fretwork that is always the same and always different.
