The Design

About Moonland Taula

The Moondland és una taula de centre única inspirada en el moviment del brutalisme, que evoca formes crues, geomètriques i netes. El seu focus en el cercle, en tots els seus punts de vista, angles i seccions, es converteix en el vocabulari per expressar forma i funció. El seu disseny irradia els patrons de les ombres de la lluna, fent honor al seu nom. Quan la Moondland es combina amb la llum ambiental directa, irradia diferents patrons d'ombres de la lluna no només fent honor al seu nom, sinó que també representa un efecte màgicament sorprenent. Es tracta d’un moble artesanal i de fabricació ecològica,
