Beautiful industrial objects by Studio Os and Oos

 

Studio OS ∆ OOS is a design studio for small objects to larger spatial concepts. The studio tries to find the balance between form, material and their relation to the surroundings and the user. For the duo it is the constant search to find the essence in the complex that drives them, taking an initial concept and working it into an object that conveys only what is meant to. 

A chair inspired from table! Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? This chair was designed by studying table manners that passed down generation to generation and as an interpretation of the archetypal head of the table chairs. The chairs are made of layers with the sheets of aluminum almost draped over each other, like napkins over ones’ lap. The way in which the sheets are connected allows for a new construction technique and unusual coloring of the material.

Traditional meets high tech; the tried and true sawhorse is a strong, sturdy and beautifully simple design. They have translated this traditional design to a stool that not only is constructed without any physical fasteners or glue but each element is a direct supporting element, resulting in a true form = function design. 

The ‘Matrix lamp’ is a spherical neon light illuminated inside a metal-grid structure. A light that casts shadows is an interested concept and can easily be added to any interior space to create a sense of drama and character.

The ‘Repeated’ mirror doubles as a work of art; its translucent mirror at the center rests on top of stacked colored glass panels, creating an asymmetrical balance of forms. Mirrors are often used to create an illusion of large spaces. This one does so by not just adding depth to the space but also subtle colours.
