The Amsterdam-based design studio Rive Roshan approaches furniture and interior spaces with an eye toward the future through its methodology, materials and style. Its black vessels rise like mysterious obelisks and its rugs give the illusion of dark pools of water dug into the ground.
The company was formed in 2012 by Australian designer Golnar Roshan and Dutch designer Ruben de la Rive Box. They met while working together at Marcel Wanders design studio and shared common principles and values regarding design.
Their respective backgrounds influence their design strategy, as each draws inspiration from the other’s cultural heritage. In doing so, they learn to appreciate their own cultures more significantly by seeing them through the other designer’s eyes.
The partners take an intuitive and experimental approach to design, such as utilizing 3D printing and specialized sand as a medium. Through this technique, their work takes on forms that are both visually pleasing and perplexing, as evidenced by the twisted pedestal shapes that form the bases of their chairs and tables.
In 2013, Rive Roshan joined other designers in establishing the Form&Seek Collective, which is focused on getting young creative minds together to share their inspirations and ideas. The collective now reaches as far as Istanbul and Milan.
Rive Roshan continues to bring new forms to life and merge art with technological breakthroughs to bring new creations to fruition.
