masheb sofa

The Masheb sofa is a rectilinear system with the softness of Alcantara and a strong visual presence. It plays with the concept of solidity through extremely simple bodies. Its square and triangular cushions sit on prismatic blocks that rise above solid-turned aluminium legs. Available in three sizes, the Masheb works as an individual module or can be intertwined with multiple elements to adapt to both casual situations and formal environments. Designed for Bd.

ARQUITECTURA-G EYEWEAR

In a unique collaboration with Kaleos, we applied our design philosophy to eyewear. We simplified the geometry of the frame in search of a Platonic archetype for eyewear. Blending precise geometry and craftsmanship, the titanium frames are handmade in Japan. Three distinct colors are available.

ACNE STUDIOS SAINT-HONORÉ

PARIS, 2021-2022, 300M2

The stone façade of the store's building is extended towards the interior of the space, somehow taking the city's soul into the store.

This willingness to connect with the city is also expressed in the windows. Given that the store is located at a Corner in Saint Honoré st. and it has two façades, the windows are left completely clear to establish a direct visual connection between the interior and the exterior of the store.

On top of that, a cutout in the intermediate slab creates a double height space that connects both floors thus enhancing the interior connections as well.

Acne Studios NY

New York, 2020-2021, 400m2

The commission consisted in transforming two adjoining stores into a new single space. Jonny Johansson shared with us a series of references of sharp shapes that, although having edges and angles, were also subtle and sophisticated. We started to play with angles and translucency, and this resulted in an artificial landscape of translucent glass panels that form a series of large triangular fitting rooms that articulate the store layout. In contrast with the sharp edge surfaces, the floor is a soft mantle that takes the shade of the glass. This hue is spread throughout all the elements of the store, creating a unitary atmosphere.

Pieces of marble furniture create a new topography on the floor that sits on top of the old one. As a counterpoint, the lighting is technical and sharp.
