NOVOTONO – Minimalist Design and Artistic Craftsmanship in Stone
Founded in 2012 by master artist Rosario Campesi, NOVOTONO redefines home décor with its minimalist, harmonious designs crafted entirely from stone.
A Unique Approach to Design
Over the years, NOVOTONO has developed a signature style that emphasizes geometric precision and attention to detail, resulting in handmade collections of home décor objects. By blending traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics, the studio creates pieces that are both functional and artistic.
The KRATERES Collection
At the heart of NOVOTONO’s creative journey is the KRATERES collection, born from a fusion of:
- Granulates of marble, granite, quartz, basalt, and volcanic stones
- Native woods from Northern Sardinia, including juniper, reed, and strawberry tree
This collection reflects an artistic exploration where the static nature of stone—a symbol of sculpture—is transformed into a dynamic material with a painterly language. By fragmenting and reimagining stone, NOVOTONO crafts compositions that transcend its original properties, combining natural unpredictability with artistic sensitivity.
Innovation Through Craftsmanship
NOVOTONO’s work combines artistic research with technological knowledge, using stone’s natural variations to create one-of-a-kind objects. Each piece celebrates the interplay between the immutable qualities of stone and the boundless creativity of the artist, resulting in designs that bring a sense of elegance and uniqueness to modern interiors.
