Cowrie Chair, 2013

The Cowrie Chair is inspired by the concave lines of sea shells. The curvilinear forms are the result of an extensive research and innovation process that bridges the handmade with the digital. Sweeping lines are displayed in a gentle, single surface monocoque fold. The all-in-one structure of the easy chair is available in plywood with a veneer of walnut, ash or ebonised ash.

Stellarnova, 2017

The biomorphic forms of the elegant Stellarnova legs are inspired by nature and sand cast in recycled aluminium or bronze. Designed with a triangulated attachment point, each leg is self-supportive with the tabletop, reducing overall material and resulting in a more refined aesthetic. Completely modular, the legs can be positioned with tabletops of any shape and size.

Alpha Stool, 2019

The solid wood Alpha stool elevates the biomorphic profile of its predecessor Alpha Chair. The footrest of the stool seemingly grows organically into the bridge and support of the back legs whilst maintaining a sinuous form that is lightweight and sculptural. The name Alpha is derived from the strong architectural gesture that gives the collection its inherent strength: the A-shaped structure.

Rotor, 2018

Inspired by the Reuleaux rotating triangle, the form of the Rotor stool is based on the intersection of three circles. The CNC-cut organic shape celebrates ‘the curve of constant width’ with the wood grain radiating out in six directions from the centre to create a structural pattern. Available as a versatile side table or comfortable stool with the addition of a padded vegetable-tanned leather seat.

Elements, 2016

The Elements table unifies three distinct geometries to form one function. The simple arrangement of a solid marble base and top, united by a stainless steel stem creates a carefully reduced form that is both elegant and anthropomorphic in silhouette. The almost primitive geometry gives the table a nimble versatility whilst being able to mix and match the tones of marble allows it to suit any interior.

Clover, 2011

Clover is an ultra-contemporary LED suspension lamp with flowing lines that fold, expand and merge. Inspired by forms found in nature, the alluring three-dimensional structure calls to mind the organic lines of a clover leaf. The light source, hidden at the meeting point of the three petals, casts light onto the internal surfaces in a continuous play of reflections and rebounds.

Scuba, 2009

Scuba is an elevated seat spanning over 2 meters and fringed by sweeping sides that resemble the wings of a manta ray. The undulating form gives Scuba its self-supporting structure in a single three-dimensional surface. The raised backrest maintains overall rigidity with its concave cross-section that slowly opens as the swooping lines skim the surface of the floor.

Cumulus, 2013

Formed by Italian master glassblowers and finished with mirror polished details, the Cumulus is an illuminated flower bud-like sphere. Through a merging of state-of-the-art technologies with traditional techniques, a digitally simplified representation of nature navigates the surface with an undulating sculptural orbit. The versatile form is highly adaptable in its uses. As a floating suspension light, a diffused, ambient glow is dispersed.
