Alex, the designer, has developed a way of methodically pinching lengths of steel tube to create tubular faceted skeletons, structures from which furniture can emerge. The aesthetic of the collection is entirely defined by the process by which it is created. Intermittently crushing the structural integrity of the metal enables the designer to hand-bend the tube, looping it back on itself to join the two ends. Minimising quantity of components whilst maximising flow and continuity of the pieces. One's eye is continuously drawn to the shiny metal skeleton of each piece. See less
