The Design

About Moonland Taula

Lo Moondland es una taula bassa unica inspirada pel moviment brutalista, qu'evòca de formas brutas, geometricas e netas. Son enfòc sul cercle, en totas sas vistas, angles e seccions devèn lo vocabulari per exprimir forma e foncion. Son design irradia de motius d'ombras lunaras, qu'onra son nom. Quand lo Moondland es combinat amb una lumièra ambienta dirècta, irradia de motius diferents d'ombras lunaras non solament qu'onra son nom mas tanben que representa un efièit sorprenentament magic. Es un moble fabricat a la man amb una fabricacion respectuosa de l'environament.
