Believe/See
The cross is revealed to those who believe
What is faith? To believe without seeing. GOOD is the memory of the crucifixion.
Designing using a subject as important as the Christian Cross is one of the biggest challenges for a designer: the risk is to fall completely into the commercialisation of a religious symbol, the art is to seduce with mere aesthetics, satisfy the artistic versatility without nominating historical and religious iconography of this symbol, using for example materials without a reason...
This was our challenge.
GOOD or GOD?
If God is Love then even the word Good manifests the Lord (God).
Giotto, Duccio From Buoninsegna, Simone Martini, Donatello ... many Masters have in the past presented representations of the Cross in a sublime and communicative way.
We see a cross… Turn your gaze believing that we have discovered all about it. Today in this fast-paced and some what superficial society the crucifix has become an object less and less with meaning and memory.
God is everywhere
The cross is a reminder while God is the present, past and future.
Discussing about the image of the cross we asked ourselves questions: by examination sometimes you reach surprising discoveries.
The Cross is an historical artefact, a memory, here is our innovation!
Just say the word "cross" and an image comes to the eyes of those who believe.
We have not created a cross but given an approach that honours its memory.
It is an image of a cross that cannot be removed from the wall because it doesn't exist (made up of four strange discs).
Perhaps in its creation we have brought a questions to mind: where is God now?
This crucifix asks us to think, asks questions... so many questions!
A respectful Cross
Must we show our faith or is it personal and not be imposed on others?
Do we still exhibit the crucifix in our living room?
For reasons of modern aesthetics, personal and furnishing… the absence of "nice, modern and significant" crosses, and often unreachable costs of a fine antique crucifix...
Have led all of us to hide this symbol increasingly, a symbol of peace and hope.
It can also be for a certain form of "education" to the neighbor: as if we do not want to impose our beliefs to visitor.
Or because we believe it to be a form of "education" for our neighbour: as if we do not want to impose our beliefs on a visitor.
Grant us the poetic license, GOOD is a respectful cross that shows itself to those who want to see it.
Hung on the wall can be unreadable for some, but very readable for those who have understood our project.
Born for the cult
This crucifix has been designed for devotion.
Shape, size, colors, materials, everything has been thought to have a matching set of meanings and linked to the history of the Christian religion.
But we don't want to say more: it will be a your personal joy that will rise by your own curiosity and interpretation.

We had a gift
We want return the benefits of this gift...
We are so in love with our Cross that we believe that we are not the creators but to have had it as a gift. The idea came to us during a work experience at La Nostra Famiglia of Bosisio Parini, an ONLUS, consisting of well being activities and social care, education and training aimed for the care of children with disabilities and disadvantages, present in more than 30 locations in the Italian Territory.
The Blue cross (colour of La Nostra Famiglia) can be purchased through our website or directly from the association (www.lanostrafamiglia.it): 50% of the proceeds will be donated to them!
