Flip

Flip Chair is inspired by the serene feeling of sitting on a grassy lawn, where one can enjoy the natural softness, warmth, and gentle breeze of the environment. The chair's flip theme embodies the graceful movement of grass in the wind, creating a dynamic and organic form. To achieve this effect, the fluidity and folds of the chair's seat are simulated and the wood was bent into shape using steam. The resulting product was then meticulously handcrafted to provide users with an authentic and immersive natural experience.

Obj01

Obj01 is a table lamp made from a single sheet of raw metal, which can be steel, stainless steel or brass. The sheet is cut by laser and assembled by hand with a rubber hammer, without welded joints. Simple geometric shapes form the lamp: a rectangle, a circle and a cylinder that holds the LED light source. The circle, once cut out, becomes the shade. The metal surface is polished by hand and sealed with wax. An integrated touch dimmer uses the conductive body, so touching any side switches the light and sets the brightness. The lamp measures 38 x 22 x 7 cm.
