TARTAN Side Table takes the structure of the original Etagere and brings it down to a smaller scale.

The same crossing lines, visible connections and woven construction remain, reworked into a compact table. Its proportions give it an easy versatility, allowing it to find its place in different settings without losing the character of the original.

A small piece, with all of TARTAN still in it.

TARTAN series

TARTAN takes its name from the traditional Scottish pattern, where threads cross and repeat to form a larger whole. In the TARTAN series, we explore the possibility of ‘weaving’ with wood, simplified to its purest form. Where the wood meets, a knot occurs. From these knots, a structure emerges.

Every structure is made from high-density bamboo and solid brass. The bamboo fibres are compressed under high pressure, creating a dense and durable material. Nothing more than what is needed.

We consider TARTAN a way of building furniture differently. The structures can be taken apart, adapted, repaired and built again. Parts can change while the principle remains. At the end of an object’s life, its materials can be separated and given another life.

TARTAN is ongoing. Taking us further every time. Different objects, different proportions, new possibilities.
