Design What

The Cut

Why should a Kitchen be fixed, un-moveable, permanent? Today’s kitchen is more often than not the ‘hub’ of the home, right at its heart. Its importance has been elevated beyond just food preparation. Now it’s the place so many of us meet and probably have some of the most interesting conversations of our lives! The intention was to create a kitchen with strong personality, a sculptural piece that stands centre stage, to be seen and admired, to seduce, surprise and entertain, through its ability to adjust to use and desire.

Lightscape Pavilion

Treasure Hill in Taipei is an old settlement with a vision of an artist compound. The contrast between the new and the old, villagers and the artists, creates an interesting dialogue, which can be experience by the visitors. Situated at the highest point of Treasure Hill, the Lightscape Pavilion becomes a focal point that can be seen from far away. The design concept is inspired by the traditional Chinese lantern, which is made with bamboo and paper. This pavilion is a lightweight structure, accompanied with curved resting benches and lighting.

Aero

The mix of organic inspiration, high quality materials &manufacturing and artisanhand finishing provides this piece a pleasant feeling, evoking luxury and a uniqueness seen at the designs of the 20s. The retro feel and the intense personality are born from the inspiration on the early aviation years, making it possible for this piece to please both the eye and the soul.

Vana

The structural systems of plants act mainly in compression and bending. In reverse we can obtain a geometry that performs well in tension. Designed as a tensile single surface, Vana is suspended from the ceiling and descends as four glowing columns of light. The geometry, tessellated into triangular segments, has been digitally grown using a cellular algorithm. Lit with LEDs from the inside, light shines through the stitched joints and lightens the space with an immersive illumination. Vana forms an iso-surface around a venation network, a cortex around an anastomosis system.

OMO Modern

The restful, modern, OMO Modern Chair & Ottoman is the result of a unique, patent pending manufacturing method combined with a memory foam based, innovative patent pending design to bring true comfort and design together. Our curved comfort design is achieved by using an outer foam mold in the shape of the chair or ottoman, and an inner foam mold to form a core of rigid foam. Molding foam around the inner core is simpler and less costly than making conventional framed furniture, and results in more comfortable furniture. Memory foam furniture that is sure to be a conversation starter.
