Fast presents the Captured By creative project

The Italian outdoor furniture brand Fast unveils Captured By, a creative project that gathers fresh perspectives and visions for experiencing life in the open air. Through a collaboration with a diverse group of talents, including nine photographers and an illustrator, Fast prompts a deeper reflection on what “outdoor” truly means and how we engage with it through design. The result is a collection of images that reveal the object in a more intimate dimension: a presence that inhabits spaces, accompanies gestures, and naturally integrates into the everyday landscape.

 

The featured talents include Gaia Anselmi Tamburini, Roberta Brambilla (illustrator), Nicolò Carlon, Elodie Cavallaro, Alessandro Sorci, Luca Zambelli Bais, Stefania Zanetti with Matteo Bellomo, Claudia Zalla, and José Limbert with Riccardo Fantoni Montana.

The shots by photographers Claudia Zalla and José Limbert present two distinct ways of engaging with the same armchair, Roè, designed by Fast’s creative directors Francesco Meda and David Lopez Quincoces.

 

Claudia Zalla chose a rugged, coastal landscape, and waited for the sun to set – that magical moment when shadows lengthen and colours deepen, without yet losing their vibrancy.

 

José Limbert, on the other hand, chose to set out on a journey. He travelled with Roè through new landscapes and through those filled with memories: from his birthplace in Lisbon, through the forests of Alentejo, all the way to the ocean.

Another creative perspective comes from Riccardo Fantoni Montana, who photographed Forest nestled in an Apennine landscape, still caught between winter and spring. We are in Romagna, amidst the mountains surrounding Modigliana – an intimate, quiet territory, traversed by a small stream and warmed by the first rays of March sun.
