SLOW WHITE SERIES

We tend to present nature in a controlled way: branches simplified into repetitive patterns, majestic trees trimmed into squared beams, flowers flattened into graphic motifs. Nature’s complexity, randomness and rawness is tamed. We lost our connection with nature and our surroundings. This century will be about renewing this connection.

For this collection, I left my computer behind and ventured into the woods. I gathered fallen wood to transform into furniture. I started building again with my own hands, knowing everything that went into the process, working consciously, smelling the wood, feeling the structure, composing.

The branches were carefully selected for their distinguishing imperfections and curves. Following these shapes led me to the designs: the individual branches were numbered and the pieces are composed using the most beautiful combination of branches. These forms give personality to each piece which will always be different due to the randomness of each branch. All products are hand made.

Slow White chair
A low, elegant chair with high back constructed from a frame of intertwining branches as if holding hands. The idea to make a classical-inspired chair out of curved branches began the idea for the whole collection.

Materials: Gathered wood (beech, birch, cherry or oak), recycled timber, white linseed-oil paint.
