Artist statement
GRIP coffee
Sculptural, brutalist, monolithic
Coffee table /side table
Design: JAN PAUL
Four shapes flow to the centre to swirl, weave and grip each other. Firmly holding on to form.
“GRIP”
A sculptural, powerful, iconic object made out of solid bamboo using modern materials and techniques.
The idea was to create an a-typical construction and make that the centre of attention.
Also inspired by traditional decorating woodcarvings.
Gentle Brutalism.
The monolithic shape is cut out of high-pressed caramelized bamboo.
The bamboo surface is sanded smooth to reveal the material's beautiful grains, subtle colour-tones, lines and details. A natural oil finish enhances and brings depth and warmth to the caramel colour and structure.
Bamboo:
A strong, highly sustainable, flexible, beautiful and renewable material. Bamboo grows without the help of fertilizers. The bamboo tree is mature enough to be cut after three years. The trees are processed into the most environmentally sustainable wood on Earth.
