The Alien

A story that originated from the sense of women - as delicately and carefully, ossified and just as carefully nurtured its roots by maintaining and creating empty spaces between them. It is as if the bones gave life and growth to its delicate, firm, and strong existence and then found itself immersed in a light, or other words, a light that blossomed from within. Sepideh got its name from the alien, so when a person feels like a foreigner or alien, her inner roots are like a new life. The roots inside have a longing to be freed and rely on the safe point of the boundary.

Mua Lau

As the world grapples with the rapid depletion of natural resources, contemporary designers are increasingly focused on exploring sustainable materials. One such example is the Mua Lau Chair, which draws inspiration from a beloved Taiwanese snack known for its distinctive texture of crispy exterior and soft, chewy interior. Sitting in this chair is akin to being transported to a serene bamboo forest, as the gentle breeze wafts over the body, fostering a deeper connection with nature.

The Collector

A wine cellar that draws all eyes. It is handmade and planned for a real wine lover. The combination of the burnished steel frames with partially colored insulating glass, make it look stable but at the same time airy. With special temperature control, this walk-in room provides enough space for cooling, storing and collecting wine. On the opposite side, there is a pivot door, also handmade of burnished steel. In the recesses of the door, the colored glass is found again.

Armchair

Hector

The focus of Hector armchair is to charm costumers who value details, vast mixes of materials and search for intriguing designs. To achieve this, the intention was to develop a system that allowed its arms made by solid wood to seemingly float around the soft tapestry assembled with concealed supports underneath and metal bars disguised as leather cufflinks. The plywood shells follow the lines of the seat and backrest which are esthetically linked with two posterior ornaments in casted aluminum, even though it's the tapestry box that accommodates the structure of the armchair.

Objects Come Alive

The luminaires are designed with a research focus on Biophilic design and kinesthetic empathy. The movement of the luminaires mimics the growth habits, movement patterns and rhythms of the plants, making the luminaires more relatable. Viewing the direction of the product relieves anxiety, tension, fatigue and other emotions. The luminaires change according to the environment (temperature, wind), making them more accessible for everyday use while creating a sense of atmosphere.
