Pouf Coffee table Lamp Armchair Room divider
Pouf
The pouf is created with a contrast between soft and structural materials. These items combine constructive board-based shaping and the shaping of soft materials — 100% bamboo fiber fabric.
The soft part’s shape resembles a cloud that smoothly flows over the pouf without any boundaries — on a solid, structural cube.
The dimensions of the item are 550×350 mm.
Coffee table
The soft part’s shape, which resembles a cloud, envelops the cube of the coffee table. The unique feature of this square coffee table is that an unusual surface layout in the form of mosaic-like plywood bonding is used to create this part. This table surface provides a new perspective on bamboo material.
The dimensions of the cube are 600×670 mm. The overall dimensions are 970×1000 mm.
The lamp
The lamp design incorporates a structural bamboo shape using slats and plywood, combined with bamboo paper, which belongs to the group of secondary bamboo materials. It is secured with material from the decorative shaping group — lamella rods. This item combines various types of bamboo materials, conveying simplicity while showcasing the diversity of possibilities for this plant as a material.
The overall dimensions are 1850×600 mm.
Bamboo armchair
The creation of the armchair incorporates the shaping of a secondary material (soft material) as a structural element, meaning it serves as the main material in the chair’s construction, while the structural material (bamboo plywood) is used for decorative purposes. This armchair design imparts a sense of lightness and lack of bulk, even with dimensions of 900×1200 mm.
Room divider
The room divider is designed using bamboo slats and plywood, which belong to the group of structural materials. This item has a round shape, which balances the rigidity of the material and creates a comfortable, uncluttered atmosphere. This piece can have various supporting internal figures.
The overall dimensions are 1600×1700 mm.
The furniture is suitable for a spacious, minimalist environment, where items made from natural materials will smoothly blend in as a subtle accent.
Additionally, the pieces from this collection will fit well in a modern space, where items made from natural materials will stand out as a contrast.
