Both notable designers of their own right, D’Urbino and Lomazzi have been a successful collaborative team for the design and creation of numerous consumer products for many well-known manufacturers. Together, they have won many design awards from around the world including the Fiat Selection for Italian Design (1978), the Compasso d’Oro (1979), and the Prize bio 9 Ljubljana (1981). Their projects can also be found on permanent display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The interest and intrigue of the "Augh!" Extensible Trivet (2000) comes from its truly unique design that resembles a star. Introduced by Donato D'Urbino and Paolo Lomazzi, it is made from many separate jointed curves of stainless steel to form a trivet that can be used closed or expanded, depending on your needs. It is a beautiful and functional piece made from 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish.
