Japanese studio Kengo Kuma and Associates has teamed up with Canadian playground design company Earthscape to create a playground structure made of interconnected logs.

Named Moku-Yama, which translates to "wooden mountain" in Japanese, the structure is made of clusters of "sustainable" timber logs grouped together vertically to form interactive peaks and valleys.

"Moku-Yama blurs the lines between art and play," said the team. "It is an open-ended and non-prescriptive form that enables a multitude of individual and social play experiences."

"From climbing to perching; from drop jumping to hiding; it affords play over, under, and around the structure."

Kengo Kuma and Associates (KKAA) and Earthscape collaborated to produce the structure in three different sizes, with each module formed by a different arrangement of logs that reach ten feet (3 metres) tall at the maximum peak.

The smallest has a footprint of 22 feet by 30 feet (6 metres by 9 metres), with a single peak, while the largest spans 35 feet (11 metres) and contains undulating "pods" of logs.

Each structure is supported by several structural posts, with groups of logs affixed to them to create varying levels.

The tops of the logs can be traversed by foot, while the space underneath resembles wooden stalactites and is also intended for play.

Towards the edge of the structure, individual logs planted in the ground create access points to the centre.

"The repetition of the cylindrical logs contrasts with the irregular and non-symmetrical overall shape," said the team. "Moku-Yama logs appear to float and the near-invisible construction adds to the sense of awe when it is experienced from every angle."

Kengo Kuma creates accessories for Fendi from washi paper and tree bark

Turned Alaskan yellow cedar was used for the design and according to the team, will not be stained to showcase the natural wood.

Moku-Yama was specifically designed for children, although "the architectural aesthetic will also captivate teens and adults who oftentimes feel excluded from play and public spaces," said the team.

"The distinction between playgrounds and architecture is less obvious than one might think," said KKAA partner Balázs Bognar.

"We engage projects based on their contribution to society, not necessarily on size, prestige, or profit. Cultural impact is the foremost factor that gets us excited. Playgrounds are architecture, at children's scale."

The model was set up in Ontario but can be purchased internationally.

KKAA recently created washi paper and tree bark accessories for Fendi and a staggered housing complex on a Japanese hillside that one Dezeen commenter found "unsettling".

Recently, Dezeen rounded up a series of innovative playground structures built around the world including a playground built around a former warehouse in China.

Local architect Florencia Rissotti has converted a warehouse into a textile shop in Buenos Aires, using fabric dividers to organise the space.

To house a retail location for fabric shop Tienda Mayor, Rissotti integrated textiles in several ways, lining the store with samples, draping colourful patches over a staircase and using curtains to conceal and create space.

The interior is divided into two floors, with a mezzanine above used for storage and office space, and the store's retail space and lounge areas below.

Cream-coloured curtains hang underneath the mezzanine and above to hide storage areas and create meeting spaces.

"The space was assembled using the raw material of the place: fabric," said the studio. "A series of curtains divide, set up a meeting room, hide shelves with orders and cover the storage area."

Along the length of a wall, large material samples are draped from hooks, which will "mutate" over time as the catalogue changes.

Similarly, fabric samples of various sizes were draped over the railings of a staircase that leads to the mezzanine, in part as a permanent installation and to display the shop's selections.

"The ladder device was intended as an exhibition element, from which velvet falls and sews the two levels (the totem) together," said the studio. "This ladder hanger is designed as an internal display window, where the selection/palette can be changed according to the season."

La Base Studio wraps glass Buenos Aires house with shading screen

Various creme tones dominate the space, with colour integrated from fabric samples and bright seating running in a straight line parallel to the fabric samples.

Alamo wood desks and large coffee tables were crafted for the space.

Outside, a garden area contains a semi-circle metal bench and simple plantings.

Florencia Rissotti is a Buenos Aires-based architect who focuses on interiors and residential architecture.

Elsewhere in Buenos Aires, La Base Studio recently created a delicate wooden privacy screen for a 1970s home renovation and architects Julio Oropel and Jose Luis Zacarias Otiñano created a bio-art installation focused on fungi.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Architecture studio Powerhouse Company has created a reception building topped with a circular walking trail as part of a development in Chengdu, China.

The structures beneath the walking trail will act as a sales pavilion and reception block for the new Unis Chip City development in Chengdu's Tianfu New District, which is under construction in the southern part of the city.

Powerhouse Company connected these two structures with a bright red rooftop walkway, named Loop of Wisdom, which is designed to make the reception block more useable than if it was a standalone building.

"While spectacular museums and reception centres are quite common in China, we wanted to create an icon that people can actually explore and use," explained the studio's founder Nanne de Ru.

The buildings were constructed on a slight hill, and the undulating terrain informed the 698-metre-long circular trail that rises up to form the roofs of the two structures.

"We wanted to work with the landscape rather than ignore it, so we used it to create an elegant, soft form," said Stijn Kempe, partner at Powerhouse Company.

Wuchazi Bridge creates "infinite meandering path" over river in Chengdu

"The building is extremely contextual, even though it is the first building to emerge in this new neighbourhood of Chengdu," he continued.

"Its design is complementary to the surrounding natural landscape and its gentle form invites people to come and explore the context and the surroundings."

While the buildings are clad in aluminium tiles, the walking track is made from rubber asphalt so that the path can be used for runners as well as walkers.

The architecture studio hopes that this means that the building will be used by residents beyond its life as a reception building.

"The Loop of Wisdom shows how landscape can influence a building, and how parametric design can be used to achieve simplicity and elegance within a very complex structure," explained Kempe.

"What's more, our design is unique in shaping an iconic building so that it can be easily repurposed in the future," he added.

Within the two buildings, full-height windows have been installed into exhibition and office spaces to allow views out to the surrounding park.

The concrete interior spaces are complemented by wooden ceilings.

In addition to designing the reception building, Powerhouse Company acted as design consultant for the project's wider development, which includes housing, office blocks, shopping malls and schools.

Once the development is complete, the reception block will be converted into a library and sports centre for a school that is planned for the site adjacent to the building.

Powerhouse Company is a Rotterdam-based architecture studio that has international offices in Beijing, Oslo and Munich. The studio previously designed a broadcast tower and visitor centre in Turkey that was connected by a circular raised path.

It has recently revealed plans to create a floating off-grid office in Rotterdam and to convert a Brutalist bunker into a housing tower.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
French architect India Mahdavi has distorted the familiar coloured stripes found at seaside resorts to create the scenography for this exhibition of 20th-century furniture from the Centre Pompidou's collection.

The exhibition presents more than 60 pieces from the Parisian institution's 20th-century collection at the Cercle Naval de Toulon - a heritage-listed 1930s building designed to host receptions for the region's naval officers.

The pop-up show was organised as part of the fourth edition of the Toulon Festival of Indoor Architecture, which is held in conjunction with the annual Design Parade event at Villa Noailles in nearby Hyères.

The Nouvelles Vagues exhibition is curated by the Centre Pompidou's Marie-Ange Brayer and explores how the shape of furniture evolved throughout the last century in response to lifestyle changes and the emergence of leisure culture.

"This exhibition of furniture, lounge chairs and inflatable pop reflects an evolution of manners and our relationship to the body," said Brayer.

The furniture on display includes early 20th-century chaise longues by the likes of Eileen Gray and Robert Mallet-Stevens, who reinterpreted the deck chair in new materials such as bent tubular steel and plywood.

These modernist designs are presented alongside contemporary versions of the chaise including a lightweight chair by Maarten Van Severen that is made from polyester and aluminium.

Another section of the exhibition showcases the emergence of more casual, lounge-based living in the 1960s. Examples from this period include Olivier Mourgue's Djinn seating collection (1964), Joe Colombo's radical Tube chair (1969), and the original Sacco bean bag chair (1968).

India Mahdavi references Bauhaus geometry with patterned interior for Berlin's KaDeWe

The exhibition's upper level celebrates the exuberance and optimism that defined the era of Pop art and design.

Several examples of inflatable furniture from this period are displayed on a sloping surface that emphasises their featherlight materiality.

The show's setting in an iconic art deco building in the port city of Toulon informed Mahdavi's design for the scenography, which borrows from the traditional seaside aesthetic of coloured stripes and the forms of the furniture on show.

"In a tribute to designers' propensity to soften the strict figure of a piece of furniture, the stripe, eternal symbol of the beach, is subject to India Mahdavi's distortions," said the architect's studio.

The furniture is arranged on podiums and surfaces covered with swirling patterns that distort the familiar stripes to create more free-form shapes.

The wavy patterns evoke both the undulating surface of the sea and the curves of the furniture, which were designed to fit more comfortably around the contours of the body.

The International Design Parade Festival was held from 27 to 30 June 2019. The exhibition in Toulon is open to the public until November 24th.

Paris-based architect Mahdavi is known for her flamboyant style that manifests itself in projects displaying "a certain vision of happiness and colour".

Her previous interiors have included a womenswear section at a Berlin department store featuring geometric floors that reference Bauhaus patterns and a London fashion boutique with a mustard-yellow and bubblegum-pink palette.

A smoked-oak staircase suspended from steel poles joins a flight of tapered terrazzo steps in this Copenhagen apartment, which has been overhauled by local practice Jac Studios.

Jac Studios' renovation of the Sturlasgade apartment in the Islands Brygge area on the city's harbourfront aimed to create a brighter and more open interior.

With this in mind, the team stripped out existing walls and chose pale-toned finishes, including off-white terrazzo flooring and white-painted walls.

The apartment now features an open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. Rather than partitioning these areas, the architects designed furniture and the staircase to mark the separate zones.

The lower levels of the staircase extend along the rear wall to form the shelving and the hearth of the fireplace that define the lounge.

"A series of plateaus create a multi-faceted installation in which surfaces extend to form a staircase, fireplace, and seating," the studio explained.

The upper steps adjoin the smoked-oak portion of the staircase, which is suspended from the floor above, and leads to the entrance and bathroom.

"The higher-level stair consisting of lightweight steel construction is suspended from the first-floor level to give the impression of levitation and offers a cleanness in form," said the studio.

Other prominent furnishings include a 4.5-metre-long darkened-oak dining table, which extends from the kitchen island and is held at its furthest end by a steel frame attached to the ceiling.

Topped by a series of pendant lights, the table provides space to prepare food, as well as work and socialise. As a contrast to its dark wood, the kitchen island it adjoins comprises a white terrazzo top and copper-clad base.

Dark wooden cabinets are fitted along the wall behind the island with a large cut-out for the kitchen sink. These cabinets extend around the corner to form the front to the two bedrooms at the rear.

The bathroom, located on the upper floor, features a long terrazzo sink, while glossy grey ceramic tiles line the other walls.

Japanese practices Sasaki Architecture and Atelier O have transformed the ground level of a 40-year-old warehouse in Tokyo into a gallery for traditional Hina dolls (+ slideshow).

The Beishu Gallery is located in Taito area of Tokyo, inside an old warehouse building that previously served as a noodle restaurant.

The Beishu brand has long-produced traditional Hina dolls, which are typically dressed in the costume of the Japanese noble class.

"Beishu Hara is the only doll maker recognised by Japan," the architects told Dezeen. "He believed ideal faces for dolls are that of children, and that is why he created plump and peaceful face like a Buddhist statue."

Yusuke Seki showcases fragile hemp textiles across banks of metal rods

"Some of the dolls were presented to the crown prince at that time," they added. "They are popular among overseas royal families and celebrities."

The space is split up into two zones, with the gallery situated at the front and a showroom at the back.

In the gallery, movable furniture is used to enable the space to be flexible. Pendant lights illuminate the dolls head-on, creating shadows across the walls.

Inside the showroom area, Hina dolls are displayed upon rows of steel shelves that fold up to create doorways.

The shape and soft-yellow colour of these shelves is based on emakimonos - illustrated picture scrolls created between the 11th and 16th centuries in Japan.

"Each set of dolls hovers in its own small world, like in emakimonos where each scene is depicted between the golden clouds," said Sasaki Architecture and Atelier O. "Every plane of the shelf drifts like a trailing cloud and acts as a stage to embrace individual story of the dolls."

"The colour selected for the metal is close to the colour of the emakimono," they added.

This style of illustration also influenced the pattern across the building's glass facade, which features a dot gradient that the architects describe as a "reinterpretation of a traditional cloud pattern".

Other shops and exhibition spaces that promote traditional Japanese crafts include a kimono shop in Kyoto and an installation using hemp fabrics for a Tokyo textile brand.

A plywood storage wall stores and displays furniture, ingredients and cooking apparatus at this Paris culinary workshop by architecture studio Septembre (+ slideshow).

Designed for French culinary company Kialatok, the space offers a variety of workshops taught by international chefs, but also serves as a venue for cultural events that vary from seminars to parties.

Due to the different purposes needed from the space, Paris-based Septembre was briefed to create a flexible and adaptable environment.

"The clients wanted a flexible space that could be adapted depending on the format of the cooking class and the different types of events they organise," explained the team, whose past projects include a woodland cabin and a converted farmhouse.

"We wanted to show the diversity of cultures and ways of cooking and consuming food," project architect Sami Aloulou told Dezeen. "Our idea was to synthesise this variety into a simple architectural element."

With this in mind, Septembre decided to present the cooking apparatus and ingredients on a custom-built plywood storage wall.

Matali Crasset completes dessert-themed common room for French culinary school

"The wall shows the diversity of the cooking classes, not only through the exposition of the different objects used for cooking but also by the different ways to savour a meal," said the architects.

Purpose-built shelves and hooks store buffets, crockery and jars of spices - allowing the students to easily access what they need.

Trestle-style legs and table surfaces, along with small blue-upholstered stools, can also be unhooked for additional seating and work surfaces.

"We designed the seating and the wall itself," said Aloulou. "Then they were technically developed and built by a carpenter of the atelier Fabric-K".

Situated on the ground floor of a building in the 18th arrondissement, the space features raw concrete walls and floors that the architects were keen to retain.

Large windows run along the facade of the building, flooding the cooking area with natural light.

"We wanted to keep as much connection with the street level as possible," explained Aloulou. "The neighbourhood had to be present to remind us of the social context."

The wall divides the space into two sections: a public area where the classes take place and a private area containing changing rooms, an office and dry food storage.

The architects opted for subtle materials to highlight the colourful objects and ingredients, as well as compliment the exposed concrete.

Light grey polished resin was used for the floor, while the central kitchen island is made from stainless steel.

Other designs for culinary school interiors include a cooking workshop in Lithuania carpeted with fake grass, and a bright yellow space in Normandy that references a French dessert.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Japanese studio Nendo has contributed to a virtual design show organised by Vogue Italia, showing its Hyouri collection of reversible traditional paper lanterns that "seem to swallow parts of themselves".

The collection, made by traditional Kyoto paper lantern manufacturer Kojima Shouten, will be on show at the Life in Vogue exhibition that takes place online from 13 to 18 April.

The event, which first took place in 2018, showcases works by six international designers and is held in a specially-designed digital space this year as the coronavirus pandemic continues to affect real-world events.

Vogue Italia invited the designers to create one room each inside a virtual replica of Condé Nast's Milan headquarters at Piazza Cadorna 5.

The Kyoto lanterns that inform Nendo's contribution usually have a structure made from a bamboo frame that consists of ring-shaped bamboo strips with ends fixed with washi paper.

For the Hyouri collection, rather than binding the ends tightly to each other, multiple bamboo strips were bound with washi paper but some slack was left to create joints, which enabled the lanterns to be turned inside out.

"A total of 10 designs were produced, including lanterns seeming to swallow parts of themselves, some triply nested, and some even reaching inward to peak through the other side," Nendo said.

Instead of the thick washi paper normally used for the lanterns, the Hyouri collection is lined with translucent silk.

The lanterns were designed to be adaptable with the flexible bamboo joints allowing them to expand and contract.

"The final product is a light, multilayered lantern expressing the genes of the traditional Kyoto lantern as well as an aspect far from the latter's unaffected solidness," the studio said.

Nendo's collection is on display at Life in Vogue's "Enlightened graphic room", where the virtual lanterns dangle from a timber structure.

Nendo creates paper soap dispensers that look like milk cartons

"The digital space is based on the physical room for the Vogue editorial department's graphic design team," Nendo said. "The space was kept colourless so as to silhouette the Hyouri lanterns graphically, so to speak, enveloping them in the subdued light."

Life in Vogue aims to create discussion and exchanges between the fashion and design industries and this year's edition, "Love Letters to Milan," also features designs by Anna Karlin, Luke Edward Hall, Vincent Darré, Marion Mailaender and Studiopepe.

Previous editions have taken place alongside the Salone del Mobile furniture fair, which this year has been postponed until September.

"This digital version of the event allows visitors to overcome the limits of space and time imposed in previous editions by the Salone calendar, to experience exclusive contents and live events in a new and completely digital way on a virtual platform," Vogue Italia said.

The lanterns will also be displayed at a Nendo exhibition in Japan next year. They are currently prototypes and will eventually be released in Nendo's online store.

Other recent designs by the Japanese studio include paper soap dispensers that look like milk cartons and an overhaul of Japan Airlines' in-flight amenities.

Agasallo is the result of our continuous experimentation with the a-emotional light's emblem material: molded and hand-painted metal mesh. An experimentation that aims to understand the material and its properties by letting it be the protagonist.

The Agasallo shape arises from a simple gesture: from a cylinder we pass a thread through various points and when stretching, the points come together, forming natural and soft curves generated by the tension of the material. The shape is not forced, but arises spontaneously, this spontaneity gives the piece an organic and suggestive beauty that is emphasized by the contrast of light.

There is something extraordinary when a material is given freedom to express itself and this is precisely what happens in Agasallo.

Agasallo, means "gift" in Galician. Its shapes and its hand painted generate unique light effects that are projected into the space creating a unique atmosphere. Available for indoor and outdoor in four pendant sizes, which can be combined at different heights creating multiple compositions. Agasallo is, without a doubt, a gift for the senses.

Japanese studio Nendo has developed a football that doesn't need to be inflated and can instead be assembled by hand from 54 interlocking plastic modules.

Called My Football Kit, the project was created for sports equipment company Molten and aims to make the game accessible to children around the world, who might not be able to buy and maintain a traditional ball.

"In impoverished communities of the world, aside from the difficulties in obtaining the regular soccer ball itself, its maintenance presents a barrier even once purchased, whether because of the unavailability of air pumps or the deterioration and damage of the tube inside the ball," said Nendo.

The studio's solution was to develop a simplified, non-inflatable ball that derives its structure not from air pressure but from its constituent materials.

Recycled polypropylene and synthetic resin were used to create three different types of components that are interlaced much like bamboo in traditional Japanese crafts.

A set of 30 long white strips are clipped together to form 12 pinwheel shapes, which in turn are combined to form a skeletal sphere.

Each of these pinwheels is reinforced through adding a black frame to its centre and filled with a matching pentagonal plate.

According to Nendo, the structure is designed so that the ball will stay intact even if an individual piece falls off in the heat of the game.

"The soft, recycled polypropylene and elastomeric synthetic resin components won't hurt bare feet, and are unlikely even if broken to develop a sharply fractured surface that might cause injuries," the studio added.

At the same time, the football's piecemeal construction allows broken parts to be easily replaced, simplifying maintenance and extending its lifespan.

Ten household items redesigned by Japanese studio Nendo

The modules are available in a range of different colours to allow kids to personalise their ball, in a bid to help them build a greater attachment to their equipment and the game itself.

The full DIY kit also comes with a matching drawstring bag and picturebook-style instructions that are designed to be understood by children across different culture and language boundaries.

Earlier this month, Nendo unveiled the logo for the Japan Association for University Athletics and Sport, which can be extruded from aluminium to form trophies or cut in slices to create medals.

The prolific studio, which is notorious for working on up to 400 projects at once, has previously taken its hand to a slew of household items from the umbrella stand to the humble ballpoint pen.

Domus es un proyecto de Ramón Úbeda y Otto Canalda que aporta novedades singulares para el mobiliario urbano gracias a la tecnología del hormigón UHPC, que permite hacer realidad la idea del shelter en una sola pieza, para que el propio banco, además de asiento, pueda ofrecer cobijo cuando llueve. También frescor en verano.

El concepto "Shelter" está en el origen de este elemento de mobiliario urbano que devine un arquetipo en su ámbito, tal cual Domus, la casa romana, es un patrón ejemplar en la historia edilicia de la humanidad. Domus incorpora conceptos singulares en el mobiliario urbano. Un banco al sol es un asiento imposible en muchos lugares, pero gracias a la combinación virtuosa del material y la configuración que aporta un techo, Domus generan un microclima más fresco en su interior.

Domus ejemplifica la importancia de crear un lazo emocional entre marca y usuario atendiendo a los sentimientos del consumidor. El factor humano destaca en este caso sobre otras cuestiones, fomentando los procesos de interacción entre sus usuarios.

Producto monobloc de hormigón UHPC_Slimconcrete armado con acero inoxidable. Acabado decapada y color según carta estándar. Su bajo centro de gravedad y los casquillos roscados insertados en sus tres caras laterales facilita su manipulación y descarga en posición siempre vertical. Su instalación con anclajes sobre pavimento o cimentación ad hoc.

Loop, dissenyada per Antoni Arola, neix de la fusió dels clàssics de Simon i la innovadora tecnologia de Fluvia. És una lluminària que dóna la volta a la concepció de la il*luminació gràcies a la tecnologia OLED.

La intenció és crear efectes lumínics a la paret a partir d'una font de llum pràcticament immaterial. Permet girar-la en qualsevol direcció aconseguint múltiples combinacions visuals.

Simple, mínima i pura Loop explora el límit dels materials per esdevenir la làmina més fina de llum que mai hem dissenyat. La seva integració a la paret (trimless) és total gràcies a una tapeta d'imprimació que permet al seu acabat ser igual al de la paret a on s'instal*la.

Loop és de llum suau, difusa i lliure d'enlluernaments que contrasta amb la seva ombra.

Flamingo (flamenc) és un au de llargues potes, delicada, elegant i molt particular.
Flamingo llum, també reuneix bastantes de les característiques de l'au. Però sobretot és una nova forma de projectar la llum.

Tot va començar amb la necessitat de crear un llum d'ambient, que la difusió normalment generada amb pantalles tradicionals, es pogués aconseguir amb una font de llum puntual i gairebé agressiva com el Led.

La solució ha estat, projectar sobre les pantalles en lloc d'embolicar la font amb una pantalla. Aquesta formula, ens ha donat un resultat eteri, hem aconseguit descompondre el llum. Amb aquesta descomposició o millor dit deconstrucció també hem trobat la possibilitat de múltiples combinacions en un inici impensables.

A través d'un treball de deconstrucción, FLAMINGO combina la funcionalitat amb la seva aparença poètica, radiant llum i reconfigurant els seus elements constituents d'una manera totalment nova.

El resultat és una llum versàtil que es presta a múltiples composicions. Separant la font de llum de l'ombra, és possible aconseguir una llum atenuada perfecta per crear atmosferes, ja sigui per a la llar o altres espais on les sensacions transmeses juguen un paper important.

El difusor està fabricat de material termoplàstic translúcid. El cable es torna invisible, ja que és una part integral de la composició i permet que els diversos elements estiguin alineats lliurement, oferint composicions d'il·luminació que els arquitectes i dissenyadors d'interiors poden aplicar fàcilment en diferents projectes.

La intenció és aprofitar la tecnologia led per "plantar" una família de llums molt esvelts a diverses altures que il·luminin a diferents nivells

El nom, la morfologia i l'adaptació al mitjà d'aquest llum venen directament de la planta del bambú. La nostra intenció és aprofitar la tecnologia led per "plantar" una família de llums molt esvelts a diverses altures que il*luminin a diferents nivells, que permetin a l'usuari crear les seves pròpies combinacions de llum segons la seva necessitat i que s'integrin amb naturalitat en els entorns exteriors. La seva forma és el resultat de com il*luminar un espai exterior component i adaptant un objecte emissor de llum procurant la mínima expressió.

Des de la tija del llum neixen uns nassos que dirigeixen focus de llum mitjançant òptiques adaptades a la seva altura, que il*luminen focal ment l'objectiu. El resultat és un llum que mostra punts de llum entre la foscor, il*luminant sense contaminar l'ambient de llum general. Durant el dia, el seu disseny depurat que remitent a la planta de bambú es fon amb discreció en el paisatge. De nit, BAMBOO il*lumina i ressalta camins, zones de pas i, fins i tot, grans espais oberts.

Els tons caqui, òxid i pedra de BAMBOO suggereixen els colors de la terra i de la sorra, mentre la seva estructura en composite garanteix la durabilitat i la flexibilitat d'aquesta col*lecció, de resistència total a l'oxidació i als agents atmosfèrics.

"El proyecto nace del deseo de recuperar el ratán como material nobilísimo y la rica tradición artesanal de nuestro país en su tratamiento. He procurado dar nueva apariencia a una técnica centenaria. La caña de ratán es ligera y resistente pero muy flexible. Este problema se ha solventado tradicionalmente introduciendo múltiples cartelas ligadas a la estructura principal. En nuestro diseño hemos substituido los habituales acartelamientos y ligaduras como elementos de unión por el maclado de una caña con la contigua. Con este innovador recurso hemos conseguido una estructura flexible pero resistente de poquísimo peso. Una silla ligera, cálida, simpática y lujosa en la auténtica acepción del término.

Se llama Fontal - perteneciente a la fuente- porque Expormim, que hoy produce muebles en muchos materiales y también en Oriente, ha decidido apostar en nuestro caso por un retorno a sus orígenes, al ratán y al histórico conocimiento local de cómo tratarlo".

In the latest Air series, this time reinterpreting an old typology of folding chair, the action of folding the seat up pulls the front and back legs together by means of a fixed pivot and a sliding track. Where previously we had moulded the Air Chair and other members of the family with a combination of tubular structure and single-skinned seat and back, this time we set out to mould each of the three components as tubular structure alone. The advantage of using new technology and applying it to old typologies is that one is able to concentrate on the essential form of the object without the need to elaborate or differentiate from other existing models. For example, it is now considerably more difficult to design a wooden chair than a plastic one simply because so many angles of design approach have already been explored and a new design necessarily needs to find fresh territory to avoid repetition. New technologies and materials are rare, but they do bring about more efficient manufacturing and sometimes result in genuinely new, improved products. If one considers plastic as a by-product of oil and thus a diminishing natural resource, it is worth considering that a plastic chair represents considerably more long term value than a tank-full of petrol, and that when it reaches the end of its useful life it may either be recycled or burnt to recoup its energy potential.

Can a piece of wood also be a piece of furniture? Seeking to transform a single wood plank into a piece of furniture, the studio experimented with folding long pieces of paper at slight angles, finding that two ends could go past each other instead of colliding and that this produced a spiral form with a curious rotational symmetry.
