Sphere

Sphere is a vase designed for fresh flowers, dried flowers and use as a room fragrance diffuser. The outer surface combines deep grooves and clear lines to create a depth effect that changes with the viewing angle and the incidence of light. Sphere is 3D printed from bio-based PLA, and each vase takes between 5 and 15 hours to produce, depending on size. A waterproof inner container, also 3D printed, is made of recyclable polypropylene. Production uses self-generated solar electricity. Sphere is offered in three sizes.

Tura

The Tura Table draws inspiration from the pyramids, built from Tura stone, a symbol of resilience and history. This influence shaped its name and design, merging ancient and modern aesthetics.

The sofa can also be compressed for flat pack packaging, which lowers packaging, storage and transport costs.
