Entrance Gate "Anima" - The Gentleness of Nature in the Heart of Steel
There are gates that protect. And there are gates that welcome. We present the "Anima" (Latin for "soul") model – an artistic gate that is a sculptural ode to nature and its constant transformation. This design in which the power and durability of Corten steel becomes the backdrop for the fleeting beauty of the butterfly, creating an unforgettable first impression.
Design and Symbolism:
The focal point of the "Anima" project is a majestic butterfly, whose wings spread symmetrically on both wings of the gate.
Playing with Negative: The butterfly motif was created by precisely laser-cutting an openwork pattern into the Corten steel shell. It is not an applied decoration, but an integral part of the structure, playing with light and shadow.
Material Contrast: The cut-out space of the wings is filled with a contrasting surface of bright, satin stainless steel (or powder-coated aluminum). This treatment creates a spectacular visual effect – a dialogue between the warm, rust-colored patina of Corten and the cool elegance of smooth metal, making the butterfly almost seem to glow with its own light.
Organic Composition: Delicate twigs and leaves wind around the butterfly, creating a coherent, plant-like motif that complements the whole and emphasizes the design's connection with nature.
Materials and Technology:
"Anima" is a synthesis of natural beauty and cutting-edge technology.
Corten steel: The "living" surface of the gate, covered with a unique, rust-colored patina, changes over time, giving it a noble and unique character.
Stainless Steel/Aluminum: The filling of the wings guarantees a flawless appearance and durability for years, creating the heart of the composition.
Laser Precision: The extraordinary detail of the openwork wings and leaves is made possible by advanced CNC laser cutting technology, which allows the digital design to be transferred to steel with apothecary precision.
The "Anima" model is fully adapted to the installation of silent and reliable automation, and its artistic character can be additionally emphasized by dedicated lighting, which will bring out the gate's second, mysterious nature after dark.
