Cubo is an ashtray made up of two simple elements: a cube shaped shell open on one side contains an element made of bent sheet metal. This element is designed so that the acute angle of one end of the sheet makes the ash fall inside whilst the overlap of the other end hides the contents once inside.

Anodized aluminium, melamine, non-inflammable . It is an extremely simple object: a module constituted of a small polymeric cube, open on one side, and a strip of curved steel. The object is, in fact, extremely functional: it holds the ash and cigarette ends, hides them from view, and protects against accidental spills.

The cubic ashtray, from which was born an entire family of objects, including the Canarie desk set and the free-standing ashtray, is part of the design collections of all the most important museums in the world, including the MoMA in New York.

Fire resistant, removable inner aluminium part

Material : Melamine, aluminium

Designed by

Bruno Munari

Bruno Munari (1907-1998) was one of the greatest figures of 20th-century art, design, and graphics. He devoted his creative activity to testing, with special focus on children’s life and games. Without ever separating contents from forms and materials, he designed books, play-books, and toys to stimulate thinking. His creations in the fields of painting, sculpture, design, photography, and education span across his poetic approaches, along the wake of his unique personality.
