About Prism Буфет
Буфет Prism натхнёны прыгажосцю каштоўных камянёў і тым, як яны прыцягваюць нашу ўвагу, як іх агранёўваюць, каб узмацніць адлюстраванне святла. Пазачасовы твор, які рамантычны, але востры. Дызайнерскі дуэт разглядае сваю працу як функцыянальнае мастацтва. Люстраная металічная паверхня Prism створана як крыніца творчасці для назіральніка. Яна можа адлюстроўваць прыгожую столь, дрэвы за акном, гарадскія небасягі або любімы прадмет уладальніка, размешчаны на ёй.

- Unique Properties
- Prism sideboard is inspired by the beauty of gems and the way they capture our attention, how they are cut to enhance the reflection of light. We wanted to create a timeless piece that is romantic, yet sharp. We see our work as ‘functional art’, we wish for its mirroring metallic top to be a source of creativity for the beholder. It can reflect a beautiful ceiling, the trees outside the window, or the skyscrapers in the city, or the owner's favourite object placed on it.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Width 1080 mm x Depth 470 mm x Hight 830 mm
- Tags
- Prism, Maan Sydney, Sideboard, Functional Art, Metal, Wood
- Production Technology
- The body of the cabinet is constructed in a way so we could use offcuts from other projects.
Dark wood sideboard: Ethically sourced PEFC certified Tasmanian oak furniture board + Rimex stainless steel mirror made from minimum 50% recycled steel. Eco-friendly, recyclable glass beads are used to etch the steel.
Light wood sideboard: Ethically sourced PEFC certified Scandinavian Birch plywood + Rimex stainless steel gold mirror made from minimum 50% recycled steel. Eco-friendly, recyclable glass beads are used to etch the steel. - Design Challenge
- We put a lot of thoughts in to the angles and positions of the panels, as well as the general proportions of our sideboard. We wanted to find the perfect balance between round and sharp.
- Research
- We have researched and been inspired by vintage cabinets from multiple eras that all had in common that they were elaborated and seemed to be designed from a perspective with art and beauty in focus. We wanted to design a sideboard that have all of above mentioned but yet feels very modern and sharp in it's design. The durable mirroring metal top part is the most exclusive material of the furniture and will be able to mirror the world of the beholder for generations.
