1988 · SURELL™ solid surfacing material · Modern and Contemporary Art

Continuing in the tradition of the Bauhaus and the international style but adding a twist that separates his work from that of his predecessors, Ranalli retained the geometric forms and undecorated surfaces but used SURRELL, a new man-made substance that appears at first glance to be a more luxurious material—such as marble or alabaster—than early modernists would have used.
