Ydin

Ydin stool can be mounted by yourself, without using special tools, thanks to a simple interlocking system. The 4 identical feet are placed in no particular order and the concrete seat, acting as the keystone, keeps everything in place. Feet are made with scrap wood coming from a stairs manufacturer, easily machined using traditional woodworking techniques and finally oiled. The seat is simply moulded in a lasting fiber-reinforced UHP Concrete. Only 5 dissociable parts to be flat packed and ready to be shipped to final customers, is another sustainability argument.

Bathroom Faucet

Formation 01

Combining dynamic gesture with advanced engineering, Formation 01 reimagines a familiar object as a functional sculpture in a dynamic new composite material. Striking angles and bold Haptic Orange color defy traditional expectations of a bathroom faucet. This limited edition product challenges how we engage with the form and function of an everyday object by pushing the boundaries of material, form, and color.

Spirito

Magic attracts people, and predictions of the future and netherworld especially. In search, people conduct spiritualistic sessions with a glass ball. Similar crystals were used in 2000 BC by Celtic druids. These items became the inspiration for the collection. Lamps look like levitating spirits. The LED is located in a base and throws its light up. It makes the gradient shade luminous and re-reflects the light down, creating a halo of light. Elements are put on each other. It helps avoid the unnecessary mounts. The name was inspired by the books of the founder of spiritualism; Allan Kardec.

Eureka

The Eureka Lounge Chair is inspired by the smallest surface in nature, the Empener surface, and gives a sense of order and flow to the lounge space through a mathematically modelled curved form. The smooth curves and curved edges add visual tension to the product. Wool fabrics from the Kvadrat Sprinkles collection, in warm colours, allows the user to perceive the comfort of the furniture before using it and creates a desire to confirm this feeling through use.

Honey Drop

Gentle light illumination of honey. This lighting is a disaster prevention item that also adds color to everyday life. Place honey in a glass container that looks like dripping honey and place it on a wooden pedestal with a rechargeable LED. In an emergency, the honey can be used as emergency food, and the pedestal can be used as a flashlight. This product is not to be stored away for use only in emergencies, but also to add color to everyday life.

Bangkok

The architecture of the ancient Thai temple became the inspiration for the collection. These structures reflect the principles of the Buddhist universe about the ghostly nature of life. This is expressed in the tiered structure. Between each tier there are light windows that fill the center of the temple with light and illuminate relics. Applying this principle to the design, it was made of several rows of glasses, and LEDs. This creates colorful glare on glass elements and scattered light. Silhouettes were based on the temple of the Emerald Buddha in Bangkok.
