With this collection, Wang & Söderström wanted to blur the line between the digital and the physical.
The objects are first made digitally, then 3D printed and finally cast in porcelain or ceramic. The shapes arouse curiosity: "We wanted to give the objects organic shapes as if they were part of a plant or animal, but retain the unfamiliarity that comes from their digital roots. What makes them ordinary or strange depends on who looks at them," he said. the designers.
This bookend has a bumpy, irregular surface and a hole in the middle that give it a cuddly character - they'll make you want to grab it to see what it feels like to hold.
