Designed by Francesca Aletti, partner at Alfa Project and Manzoni Hub, the Pollock bar cabinet by altreforme has been named winner of the Archiproducts Design Awards 2025. The project received recognition in two categories: Furniture, for its innovative aesthetic combined with refined functionality; and the special category Sustainability, for its responsible and circular approach to design.

Entirely crafted from aluminium thanks to the Fontana Group's expertise, of which altreforme is part, Pollock embodies a perfect balance between design, innovation, and ecological awareness. Conceived to evolve, it can be renewed with new finishes, colours, and details through the brand's Sartoria service, thereby extending its lifecycle and reducing the environmental impact associated with disposal.

"Pollock was conceived for those who love iconic design and wish to bring into their spaces an object capable of fostering conviviality, lightness, joy, and sophistication. Thanks to its infinite customisation possibilities, I envision the project evolving into new variations and adapting to international hospitality and contract contexts, ultimately becoming a recognised symbol of style and functionality," comments designer and architect Francesca Aletti, who, together with partners Andrea Crespi Reghizzi and Alberto Parma, designed the interiors of Manzoni Hub, the new design and contract services hub led by the three partners.
