ThusThat aims to unearth the hidden backstories of materials. The studio is led by duo Kevin Rouff and Paco Böckelmann who started working together during their Master's degree at the Royal College of Art in London. ThusThat bridges collectible design with innovations in material science, in a way that is ultimately accessible to a wider audience. We aim to create pieces that are strong, simple, and direct in form, keeping the complexity packed within the materiality itself and its innate aesthetic characteristics. Our work primarily focuses on the use of uncommon materials such as industrial wastes, to suggest alternative futures.
