7 Möbelstücke


















The 7 Möbelstücke collection is an inspiring collaboration between a designer, Herbert Schultes, and a craftsman, Friedrich Reich.
Both men had the intent to explore new ways to produce wooden objects, furniture pieces, using modern production methods, but taking mass production out of the equation.
In their quest they focused on what was essential to the sitting experience of a chair and stripped back the other elements. The result is a minimalist, collection that consists of a chair, two stools, two tables a desk and a bread case made of European maple, American maple and oak. Frank furniture pieces made with attention for detail.

Knife & Spork


























Originally intended for exhibition in Milan in 2010, Minimalux has produced a minimal culinary accompaniment, measuring 150 x 15 x 30mm in size. Commissioned by Wallpaper for their Handmade exhibition, these pieces are characteristic of the London-based Minimalux label with their dedication to the minimalism discipline.
The crisp and uninterrupted lines of the Knife & Spork are a celebration of stainless steel. Mirror-polished and completely flat and linear in profile they display an obvious harmony and formal symmetry. Ignoring ergonomics, these pieces seem to play with the conventions of industrial design and challenge the user to engage in a changed eating experience. Too often is this challenge posed. Less emphasis therefore on the food than on the way in which the food itself is to be consumed.

Sumhold



Designed in the Swiss style, Sumhold is a calculator that instantly calculates and stores numbers with a reductive interface and simple swipe gesture.
Sumhold, featuring a minimalist design, makes complex calculations and number storage simple. 
Unlike most basic calculators, Sumhold keeps a running tally of your current calculation at the top and, when calculations become complex, automatically inserts parentheses to keep everything clearly readable. There is no need for an “=” button because it calculates as you type.
When a calculation is complete and you need to store the result for later, you simply drag it down toward the keypad into Sumhold’s scratch-line to make a temporary button.

Pebble


Pebble is the result of a collaboration between Jacob Juul of newly established Danish watch brand Bulbul and KiBiSi.
The asymmetric watch face was inspired by the smooth contours of the pebbles found on Scandinavian beaches. Pebble combines organic shapes and fine Italian crafted leather with the industrial feel of the injection molded silicone loop defining an international hybrid of heritage and openness. Swiss movement and sapphire glass are high quality components designed to last with the design.

Cake Anti Vase



















Cake is a cutting edge New York City studio pushing the boundaries of apparel and objects. This is certainly the case for Cake’s Anti Vase. Beautifully designed, it comprises solid steel, measures only 3 x 5 inches and is unlike anything ever seen as it questions not only the purpose of a vase but the perception of death.
Typically vases hold water to prolong the death of a cut flower, however the Anti Vase accepts the flower’s death and celebrates its beauty.
