Turi is a solid and reliable chest of drawers made of an unpolished walnut that you can't help but touch if you want to understand how true and wise it is. A piece of furniture where you can keep a secret as if you were confessing it to your best friend (and the drawers' secret is that the blue interior that can only be discovered by opening the drawers). A piece of furniture where you can store the objects of a collection, store many small pieces of your life, or even, simply, put things in order. The legs are an explosion of joy and strength, powerful and rooted in the ground, and able to push the drawers upwards, and to show us what vitality is.
