Appreciation towards Fernando Mastrangelo for providing the following description:

设计师Fernando Mastrangelo开发出了一系列惊艳的水泥雕塑家具，通过手工染色和逐层浇筑实现水墨般渲染晕开的细腻彩色层次。

Fade is a new series of sculptural furniture within the MMATERIAL line that utilizes cement as the only material. The cement is hand-dyed and casted layer by layer to achieve a soft ombre effect and delicate pour lines within the pieces.

Fernando Mastrangelo多年来一直采用独特的浇筑材料（盐，糖，砂）作为他雕塑实践的一部分，在MMATERIAL 系列中创造出设计与艺术交融并可应用于室内外的功能性极简美学产品。

Fernando Mastrangelo告诉gooood：“晕染系列是用原始方法制作出的简单几何作品。对于制作的主材料，也就是水泥，我已经探索有一段时间了，也最终掌握了淡入淡出的水墨式染色工艺。这个水泥染色工艺在未来有可能大规模运用在空间装修上，比如墙壁和其它复杂的对象上，打造出具有吸引力的表面。”

Fernando Mastrangelo has been using unique casting materials (salt, sugar, sand) as part of his sculpture practice for over a decade. In his collection MMATERIAL by Fernando Mastrangelo, he re-contextualizes form and function once again, bringing together indoor and outdoor materials that fuse his minimalist aesthetic with deft ingenuity and craft. MMATERIAL strives to fuse sculpture and design in ways that are not found anywhere else in the market.

Fernando Mastrangelo told gooood：”I would describe The Fade Series as an even more reductive approach to simple geometric works, separating it a bit from my previous collections. The pieces are strictly made with cement, which is a material I’ve been exploring for a while, but I really got a chance to push the subtly and beauty of what cement can do.” He said: ” Fade is about seductive surfaces that urge people to want to touch or interact with the material. The Fade Series is evolving into architectural spaces now, we are able to cast walls and complex objects, using the same principals, but expanding them into a physical experience.”
