Davide Vercelli explores the gestures involved in using a faucet with SO, a product that goes beyond the limits of a traditional mixer with a design crafted to facilitate water volume adjustment and preferred temperature selection.

Designer and engineer, Davide Vercelli founded his studio in 2005 after a research path at the Politecnico di Torino. The studio focuses on product development, growth strategies, communication, and network building. Design, beauty, responsibility, and profit are the guiding principles behind every project.

A multidisciplinary and transversal approach has enabled the studio, over the years, to support clients as a global consultant, handling product design, brand design, brand strategy, and exhibition design. Since 2013, the studio has curated and designed the main collective event at Cersaie (Aggregati, Cer-Sea, Cer-Stile, Cer-Sail, Milleluci, The Sound of Design, Famous Bathrooms, Contract Hall, Route 40), dedicated to contract and wellness projects. Since 2019, it has also been responsible for the design and setup of the VIP Lounge at Artefiera in Bologna, the leading international fair dedicated to the art world.

A lecturer at IED Torino and Guest Professor at the Politecnico di Milano, Davide Vercelli has received numerous international recognitions: fifteen selections for the ADI Design Index, three honorable mentions at the Compasso d’Oro, two Young & Design Awards, three Design Plus Awards, one IDA (International Design Awards), one Good Design Award, three iF Design Awards, and two ADA (Archiproducts Design Awards).
