Inspired by simplistic structural forms and using ultra-high-tech carbon composite materials, the Essence of Strength range features cantilevered forms to push design parameters to support varying human postures.
Created by the British industrial designer, Kristian Arens, the collection comprises a Chaise Longue, Cobra High Stool and a range of super lightweight carbon Aero Benches. The products contrast novel carbon fibre technologies with hand crafted leather and wood veneers.
Taking structural inspiration from natural organic forms, these highly engineered designs use a complex and intricate alignment of carbon threads to create fluidity of shape while ensuring incredible strength, super-thin profiles, and feather-like weight.
