THE PIECE
ORIGAMI. The Japanese folding art
of transmuting paper into a symbolic representation of life and nature.
Inspired by this art, the Origami
fireplace comes from a steel plate, which bends and shapes the forms that
generate this multifunction furniture, in a dialogue between matter and object.
Its three uses - fireplace, champagne ice bucket, and table - also represent a
relationship between the elements of nature and its natural cycle: the metal
condenses the water, which nourishes the wood that feeds the fire; this turns
into ashes and is incorporated into the earth, which, in turn, generates the
metal. This cycle is the basis of Feng Shui, and the furniture works as a cure
when applied in the environment.
This minimalist piece of
furniture, with pure lines and materials that enhance the sculptural forms,
rests smoothly on the floor. The fireplace has a base suspended from the floor
and is perfect for outdoor areas, decks, and lawns. When unlit, the champagne
ice bucket can be attached to the piece, accommodating 6 to 12 bottles.
Moreover, the Cumaru wood top creates a third use and functions as a table,
storing the utensils internally and configuring a new atmosphere around the
piece.
