Light Forest
Exploring this fully customizable architectural lighting-system, we have created the dynamic luminous Light Forest installation.
Inspired by the sunlight shining through the woods, the panels, covered by a patchwork of 3M synthetic fine wood surface resemble an abstract, dense forest.
Linear Cycle
Linear Cycle is not a common clock.
Instead of the usual rotating dials it features a revolving shell-like element which allows it to indicate the passing hours on a linear plate instead of a circular one.
Inverted Spaces
Inverted Spaces is a wallpaper design inspired by the night sky, created in partnership with New York based Calico Wallpaper.
J & L Tumblers
“Incredible care and attention are put into the smallest details, yet at the same time many of the pieces are intended for everyday use – encouraging us to (re)discover the joy of our daily rituals.” With this in mind we have created the J & L Tumblers.
Mixed Animals
Why does an elephant have such a long nose?
We naturally associate specific proportions and parts to certain animals, yet the Mixed Animals feature a system of magnets and separate body and accessories pieces allowing one to challenge these associations.
Origin part IV: Foster
Foster is comprised of three series of crafted objects and is the result of our collaboration with Ibuki, a part of Kyoto Takumijuku – a non-profit organization based in Sonobe, Nantan-city, Kyoto prefecture.
New Perspectives
The Textielmuseum in Tilburg, the Netherlands, has invited us to browse through their magnificent archives. Ensuing, we have been commissioned to develop new pieces for the museum’s collection, inspired by our findings, using the TextielLab’s computer-controlled embroidery machine.
Inside out
As part of their Beijing Design Week program, Dashila(b) has invited us to observe and reflect on the very dynamic processes which the Dashilar area is currently going through.
Infinity Pillow
Fashioned after the Möbius strip with its continuous one-sided surface, the Infinity Pillow offers endless possibilities – from a neck and back cushion to a head rest, noise-cancelling pillow and much more!
Interlacer
For the Another Terra exhibition during the Salone del Mobile, curated by Barbara Brondi and Marco Rainò, we were commissioned to create a small piece relating to the concept of a travel to a new planet which offers similar conditions as Earth;
Origin part III: Contrast
Contrast is the result of our collaboration with Meitheal Mara, and consists of a Side-Table, Stool and Fruit-Bowls.
In Between
In Between is a collection of hand-blown glass tableware. Drinking glasses, bowls, plates, and accessories of various types and sizes come in a six step gradation – from transparent to white. Rather than sand-blasting, the gradation is achieved through the application of varying amounts of white pigment during the process.
Origin part II: Balance
Balance is the results of our collaboration with Sidreh and the women weavers in Lakiya.
Lakiya Negev Weaving is an organization of Bedouin artisans, initiated by Sidreh, a non-profit organization focused on improving the socioeconomic situation of Bedouin women living in Israel’s Negav Desert.
Origin part I: Join
Join is the results of our collaboration with Mr. Tanaka – a master of Tategu – the traditional craft of Japanese wood joinery.
Join consists of a series of three space-dividers. In each piece two lined frames, representing the humble integrity inherent to the craft, are visually merged to create a moment that deviates from the conventional Tategu aesthetic, and introduces angles and shapes that are not commonly used in the craft.
City of Light
City of Light illustrates an abstract image of a city. In contrast to the most installations during the Glow Festival, using cutting edge lighting-technology, this low-tech installation consists of four hanging LED-lit light boxes, featuring layered images of imaginary cities.
Re-skinned
Re-skinned explores the ways we use and re-use valuable materials.
The collection consists of a series of carpets made from old leather coats that have been taken apart, reassembled, and re-purposed as traditional skin rugs. With a protective, non-slip lining and an embossed serial number, each piece is as durable as it is distinct.
