snake furniture
A private client of me asked me to come over to his house to check out a special room. He lives in an old milk factory and in the center of his house there still is the old coldstore. He wanted me to completely redesign the interior and then use it for several purposes.
His wishlist:
1- Workspace with a desk for himself but also for the kids
2- Storageroom for all kind of stuff
3- Sitting area for te kids (like a bench)
4- playarea for the kids and it had to fit the vibe of the rest of the house, it should be playful but also modern and clever....
Hmmmmmm.....well....the answer came quick. I designed a 'snake cabinet' where all the functions are determined by the height, depth and volume of the cabinet. A elongated one-piece snakelike object. I used a friendly light material and bright colours to make the room friendly and inviting. Last but not least i designed a swiniging saloondoor which fits the formlanguage of the room.
A very nice cooperation with the friendly houseowners and really a great result.
