architecture-design · 2026-06-17

Danese Milano has released a summer series of minimalist puzzles by Michele De Lucchi and reissued Enzo Mari's 16 Animali and 16 Pesci from 1957. De Lucchi's La Fattoria di Chele features eight farm animals cut from Chilean pine, while the Chele Puzzle comprises cardboard shapes for imaginative composition. Mari's puzzles use a single continuous cut to generate 16 figures from one piece of wood. All projects emphasize hands-on exploration and reduce over-stimulation through minimal design.
