Description

Delta is a small multi-use piece designed by Jordi Vilanova in 1964 and reissued by Isist Atelier in 2020.

It won a Silver Delta award from ADI-FAD in 1964, which gave it its name.

Design

Who designed Delta?

Jordi Vilanova (1925–1998) worked with his collective, La Cantonada, to bring design into everyday furniture in 1960s Spain: functional pieces with a modest character, made to be used rather than admired from a distance. He designed Delta in 1964. That same year it won a Silver Delta from ADI-FAD, the Barcelona design association, and the piece took its name from the prize.
Materials and use

How is Delta made?

Delta is made from solid natural pine with a water-based varnish. Its form is an intersection of horizontal and vertical planes, which is what gives it more than one use.

Those friends became La Cantonada, the collective he formed with the ceramicist Jordi Aguadé, the painter and stained-glass artist Joan Vila Grau, and the jeweller Aureli Bisbe, later...
