Monoknit Chair

July 5th, 2008

A low-chair made from polypropylene cord. A part of the chair is heated causing the cord to shrink and harden. Because of the knit, the whole structure pulls itself together, making it more stiff. This forms the constructive shell of the chair, while the seating part stays untreated. Through the monomateriality of the chair, it is not only easy to produce, but also easy to recycle.

Animal chairs

January 30th, 2008

When you take off the skin of a cow, there’s the meat. When you take off the meat, you have the skeleton. My chairs are constructed like a creature:
skeleton, meat, skin. I reconstruct metal frames I found on the dump based on anatomic rules. Like an archeologist who finds a dinosaur skeleton.

The chairs: Kurt, Kauer, Kummer

Kurt

January 30th, 2008

kurt is a luscious chair with the look and feel of an armchair, but the proportions and the inner life of a kitchen chair. It’s clearly animalic shape make it look like a toy, but the materials and the treatment is grown up.

Kummer

January 30th, 2008

kummer is a high chair ideal for at the bar which seperates the kitchen from the living space in a modern appartment. It’s form falls between the aesthetic of the kitchen and the livingroom furniture and acts as a transition between the two.

Store your memories

July 4th, 2007

All of us have these treasures that we store somewhere in a box. Items from our childhood, findings from holidays… Every time we rediscover them, we remember the stories connected to them. Every time we clean up, we think we should finally get rid of them, throw them away.

Using 3D scanning I create digital copies of these treasures. The objects loose their materiality, but they keep their stories.With low-cost 3D printing I turn them into very personal products.

Renaturated Tacos

July 4th, 2007

Every opening, every vernissage it’s the same: We eat culinaric artworks from silver trays, snacks where you wouldn’t believe that they originally were made from plants and animals.

With my taco chips I want to bring the natural aspect back to industrial food. The chips can be built in an architectural structure directly on the table, or grow across it in organically structured branches. Pick the chips like from a tree an dip it in the sauce which is contained in the structure

The illuminating friend on your couch. No more sitting in the dark while watching a movie. No more being afraid of scary scenes. No more spilling your beer while reaching for the chips.

Room Divider

January 13th, 2007

A foldable room divider made of a single sheet of paper. The ultra bright LED lights which sit in the niches provide a strong indirect light on the one side, and a cosy atmospheric light on the other side of the room.

Reading light

November 22nd, 2006

A reading light inspired by the pile of books on the bedside table. Pull the lampshed and the lamp extends in a snake-like move over your bed. It casts even light directly on your book, no disturbing shadows anymore. When you’re done reading, push it back and the lamp rolls back in.

Cocoon

April 14th, 2006
