4x4

The 4x4 bench has been designed and constructed with a reuse approach, utilizing recycled materials. The bench is made using 16 recycled paper tubes, each measuring 160 centimeters in length. The challenge in designing this bench was placing the tubes on the smallest possible contact surface of the circle, as the tubes tend to slide on top of each other, requiring a larger contact surface for stability. To solve this challenge, recycled plastic pieces were designed and produced to prevent lateral movement of the tubes on each other.

Infinity

The main emphasis of the Infinity armchair design is made precisely on the backrest. It is the reference of the infinity symbol - an inverted figure of eight. It is as if it changes its shape when turning, setting the dynamics of the lines and recreating the infinity sign in several planes. The backrest is pulled together by several elastic bands that form an external loop, which also returns to the symbolism of the infinite cyclic of life and balance. An additional emphasis is placed on unique legs-skids that securely fix and support the side parts of the armchair just like clamps do.
