Aim

Modular Furniture system inspired by 19th century Ottoman and 20th century Scandinavian furniture. The aim was to make a simple modular system with a focus on details and materials. The simple timber frame plays with sectional morphing in line with Gaudi’s explorations. Ovals become squares, half circles become rectangles in the element sections.
