ABOUT

Dasein products was looking to come up with an unique coffee table. Different in form and materials. They choose plywood but used it in an unconventional way by bonding it together on the flat sides. This gave the possibility to make a robust and elegant looking object at the same time. Seen from the sides one sets eyes on a block of wood, seen from the fronts, one looks at an elegant, 2-level object. Due to the strength of the material, the thickness of the levels can be reduced to a thin line.

ABOUT

At Dasein Products, they are always looking for an unique approach without compromising in functionality or comfort. In this case a chair and a barstool. These seats are made of a laser-cut metal construction and with cowhide upholstered foam cushions. The metals form a strong single legged chair but split again to become supports for the cushions. The seating cushion is directly fixed on the metal. The backrests are connected by a hinge so that they can adapt to the seated person.
