Halloween is just around the corner and we couldn't remain indifferent to its charm. That's why this week, intOndo has decided to propose a selection of ad hoc furniture inspired mainly by the imagination that has developed around the myth of the Addams family.
The Addams family is a group of characters created by Charles Addams and protagonists of works in various media. In the thirties Charles made his first cartoons with the characters of the family that, since the sixties, have inspired various television series, cartoons, feature films and video games.
From the very beginning in Charles Addams' cartoons on The New Yorker, the Addams family was a mix of black humour and costume satire that made fun of all the bourgeois behaviors of American conformist society. In the first television series one of the most incisive components is the reaction of the unfortunates who had to deal with the madness of the characters, who, however, despite everything seemed to embody models always positive and strong morality.
If from a character point of view the characters have a strong personality is also thanks to the environment in which they are told their stories: old family heirlooms, armor, antique furniture, cobwebs, dusty carpets and a hand cut off that paws around the house ... this and much more is what you will find in the home of this curious family.
So we want to dwell on the interiors of Addams house, to fully understand what made it so famous as to turn it into a real "style" to refer to.
IntOndo has selected some unique pieces from its catalogue to create a moodboard to inspire you to make your home a special place:
1. Coloured glazing
Used since ancient times to decorate and illuminate Gothic churches, the stained glass windows are one of the most distinctive elements in the iconography "Addams". Positioned in the walls so as to intercept even the weakest ray of sunshine help to protect the house from light and to filter it harmoniously.
2. A round wooden table
The Addams like to celebrate, in their own way of course! A round table is the perfect table for family reunions and to celebrate together. The circle, the perfect shape, allows all diners to look into each other's eyes.
3. Hands
That's right, you read well, small clear hands pounding around the house. Don't be impressed, initially they might frighten those present but I assure you that in the long run they will become indispensable for you. Have you ever asked someone if they could help you?
4. A portrait
A work of art, a unique piece, a face. What do they have in common? The fact that they are all represented in a portrait. Leather as white as marble, eyes as bright as diamonds and soft silk hair. The delicate brushstrokes give these and many other details in paintings and prints: what are you waiting for to ask for a gift?
5. A birdcage
Do you dream of the sun, the heat and the tropical scents? A greenhouse could be right for you. If you don't have enough space in your garden, you can always equip yourself with a birdcage to give an exotic touch to your garden and, why not, to your living room.
