kub stool

With their varying heights, diameters and digitally-produced patterns like wood bark, the pieces in Kub furniture series recall tree stumps. The solid linear metal pieces in the series are a visual play on the 'wireframes' of 3D software, while the volumes of the soft, smooth fabric-covered ones project a strong sense of surface. By combining these oppositional elements-line and surface, nature and artifice, soft and solid-Nendo hoped to generate objects that exist in an ambiguous space between nature and digital expression.

Under the direction of architect Oki Sato, the group that gathers under the name Nendo has produced, since 2002, a cultural and refined alternative to self-celebrated design. "Nendo" in Japanese means "clay" and their job, in the field of interior architecture, of furniture and graphics is pliable and flexible as clay. In a short few years, Nendo has received important international credits.

The Kub table/stool features varnished steel in your choice of colors.
