MASSE WOOD BENCH





Element 1_Variation
Masse objects are results of a comprehensive research into materiality, mass and density, originally applied to the self-developed stone-like Chaud paper composite (CPC) and its distinctive qualities.

This newest variation on the Element 1 bench, realized in Pinus Sylvestris offers a different finding in relation to form, structure and aesthetics.
Through the Shou Sugi Ban technique, the inner structure of the pine wood reveals itself. The unique drawings which appear after burning and brushing the carefully selected pine wood, create distinctive compositions between the different cuts of the wood; The beams of the seat which are rift sawn, accentuate the horizontal direction and the legs which are flat sawn unveil the circular end grain at the top.

All pieces are finished with a slightly colored linseed oil nourishing the wood as well as its subtile nuances of black, brown and hints of bleu.
As a result each bench encompasses the generous applicability and beauty of the material in a straightforward design.

The selection of the wood and manufacturing of the wooden structure are meticulously made by Mathijs Huyghebaert. The finish is applied with great care at the studio.

All pieces have unique drawings, are numbered by date and signed.

CHAUD SIDE TABLE SERIES DUO






In this unique piece, paper and stone are combined to keep each other in balance.
Two materials that, on sight, resemble but are in essence significantly different; introducing a juxtaposition which behaves otherwise through observation than through touch. It should therefore come as no surprise that at the origin of this design, a research into materials is to be found, a consideration of resources that reaches beyond a purely aesthetic or even functional analysis.
The upright (supporting) structure - articulated through a pillar- shaped column alluding to a classicist idiom - is made of Chaud Paper Composite. A unique mixture of mainly surplus paper and stone dust. Yet as much as this material approximates the appearance of a stone, it offers possibilities that no stone could achieve. For one, the composite is light and flexible, and before being pressed and dried, allows to take on any shape imaginable. Furthermore, when thoughtfully designed, it is more than strong enough to carry the beautiful Beige dei Medici. Thus, allowing an encounter that creates an interplay between the ambient light and the subtle differences in textures, between massiveness and delicacy, stubbornness and flexibility and where one part feels cool and the other warm.

CHAUD SIDE TABLE SERIES (CSTS) COMPOSTION I






The design of the Chaud Paper Composite started with the designers’ longing to create a material which has outdoor aesthetics, resembling stone, but with more suitable properties for the interior. The Chaud Paper Composite consists of paper waste, recycled at a local print shop, and stone dust. This results in color neutral, stone like surfaces.

The CSTS composition 1 are constructed out of Chaud Paper Composite and Beige dei Medici.
Once pressed, the paper composite is still humid and can be bend. They are dried and held in a series of horseshoe stone moulds; different curves, which afterwards frame the base of the table. The weight of the stone table top gives stability to the piece. Each paper form is slightly different from the other

as the air dictates their shape during the drying process. United, the dried paper and the stone, challenge each other to create a series of architectural inspired side tables.
The design of the Chaud side table series is defined by strong graphical lines to allow a game of shadows, created by the movement of daylight, over the tactile surfaces.

CHAUD SIDE TABLE SERIES LOW II






The CSTS LOW II are constructed out of paper composite and Slate. Recycling paper waste form a local print shop and hand pressing them with stone dust results in color neutral, stone like surfaces. For the LOW II a natural pigment is added to the Chaud Composite to match the Slate top.

Once pressed, the paper composite is still humid and can be bend. They are dried in curves, which afterwards frame the base of the table. The weight of the stone table top gives stability to the piece. Each paper form is unalike the other as the air dictates their shape during the drying process.

United, the dried paper and the stone, challenge each other to create a series of architectural inspired side tables. The design of the CSTS is defined by strong graphical lines to allow a game of shadows, created by the movement of daylight, over the tactile surfaces.
