About

Florimel series inverts a narrative of purely utilitarian object into artistic interpretation of interplay of colors, light, and shadows on organic-based 3-dimentional forms. Bowl I object's topography interprets solid wood as delicate flower petal. Bowl I object's topography interprets solid wood as delicate flower petal, creating a quiet, intimate, and sensual narrative, with the light flow enhancing an austere, meditative form. This solid mahogany object is hand finished in oil and wax, preserving natural warmth of the wood graining. The decision to work in custom format was based on environmental concerns and opposition to culture of mass production and pure consumerism. The choice of materials was heavily influenced by sustainability and environmental concerns. All objects are made locally in the Brooklyn Navy Yard workshop. Elimination of storage and transportation needs for mass-produced furniture in lieu of creating a custom made objects on demand allows us to reduce waste of materials and energy.
