Rope Chair and Tupla Wall Hook by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec are known as much for their technical
expertise as for their graceful artistry. Celebrated first by the
launch of the Kaari collection in 2015, their work for Artek
has been truthful to the company ’s ethos of embodying Art &
Technology, what Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius famously
referred to as a “new unity ”.
In a new venture bringing together industrial production with
artistic sensibility, Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec have designed the
Rope Chair and Tupla Wall Hook: surprising silhouettes that meet
sophisticated constructions in a synthesis of art and technology.
ROLF BENZ ADDIT.
THE UNIVERSAL SOFA OF OUR TIME. WITH THE FUTURE
INCLUDED.
More than ever, our lives today are subject to change. For Berlin
designers Tina Bunyaprasit and Werner Aisslinger, this was the
motivation and inspiration behind creating Rolf Benz ADDIT, a
freely movable living collage. The result is a modular sofa landscape
in an iconic design that adapts to virtually every wish and every
room situation – and which can also, when required, be expanded
piece by piece. The graphically linear, floating appearance blends
with any surroundings. The voluminous cushions make Rolf Benz
ADDIT the ultimate feel-good experience.
In Situ Modular Sofa: The In Situ Modular Sofa is a grand, modular design
with sculptural lines that can be tailored to your individual space and taste
yet with its modular elements hidden through subtle detailing of its front
profile, paired with deep comfort and a soft seat. Choose from any of the 30
predesigned configurations or create your own, using the 9 different seating
modules and 2 loose cushions.
Rime Pendant Lamp: The Rime Pendant Lamp brings an elegant perspective
to the glass pendant lamp through its semi-transparent glass that
has been sandblasted for a refined expression. The design features a
characteristic form, inspired by the shape of acorns, complemented by
its powder-coated top-part, pendant tube and cord in a matching color
for a subtle touch. The design is available in four colors across four sizes,
allowing you to use the design on its own or in linear formations or
playful clusters for a modern chandelier.
Oslo Counter & Bar Stool: Combining modern, geometric lines with a
contemporary expression and comfortably soft seat, the Oslo Counter &
Bar Stool brings a refined perspective to the form through its playful lines
and embracing back, joined by the comfort of its footrest, allowing its user
to sit at multiple angles for many hours at a time. The Oslo Counter & Bar
Stool adds an elegant touch to any space in a home, restaurant or workplace.
