Origin Polcha X Atelier Veneer Claustra

About the Item

This claustra is the first piece completely imagined by Polcha. It was entirely made from wood scraps and manufactured by Atelier Veneer, a French carpentry workshop. Each slat rotates and creates an intimacy that is appropriate for each moment. The waves modulate and create shadows depending on their inclination and the time of day. Also we play with the trompe l'Oeil to amaze and play with our senses. Claustra in okoume wood, trompe l'œil Grand Antique marble, malachite trompe l'oeil, degraded paint with white lacquer and shiny varnish. Restored and reworked in our workshop in Paris, France.

  • Lionel Jadot and Zaventem Ateliers, Spin Love, BE
    By Lionel Jadot
    Located in New York, NY
    Bringing together 15 of Europe’s most exceptional artisans working across the design spectrum, Jadot has spearheaded the creation of an extraordinary mixed-media, multi-functional object in the form of an unique ping pong table, titled “Spin Love.” In addition to its recreational use, "Spin Love" can be divided with each table top elevated to serve as a double-sided room divider or screen, with a matching pair of standing floor lamps. One of the most ambitious works of decorative arts today, “Spin Love” connects the talents of the idiosyncratic, visionary artists that make up Zaventem Ateliers. Jadot is the mastermind behind Zaventem, an experimental artist workspace accommodating 32 separate workshops dedicated to the production and transformation of materials, allowing a group of exceptional craftsmen working in ceramics, leather, metal, marble, textiles, and wood to collaborate, experiment, and inspire one another. As a physical representation of the ingenuity and creative drive housed within the walls of Zaventem Ateliers, “Spin Love” asserts their commitment to old world craftsmanship, free thinking, and modern innovation. In conceiving “Spin Love” Jadot aimed to create a work where visionary design and idiosyncratic craftsmanship meets the already collaborative energy, humor and playfulness he had amassed within Zaventem. Each individual element, from the mixed media table tops to the unique ping pong paddles, showcases the height of the artists’ specific expertise. The double sided clover-shaped table top can be divided into two separate tables, each with the ability to be raised to stand upright, acting as a dual-faced screen allowing for four distinct visual options.One bifurcated table half features black and white geometrically patterned leather collages from Niyona, a French custom leather design company. Its corresponding half is composed of precious wood marquetry work by Alexandre Lowie with a steel star detail jewelry designer by Luna Lotta. The second table is composed of an integration of metalwork by Maison Jonckers and textiles from Studio Krjst enclosed within poured resin. On one side each artist’s work is tessellated into a tightly controlled pattern. Flipping the table over reveals an expressive and chaotic assemblage of patterns and textures. The freestanding, movable lamps...
