About the Item
This collection is made with the offcut surface skin—colloquially called “the crust”—of giant aluminium blocks coming from an industrial smelters. Weighing over 25 tonnes, the smelter's blocks are initially clad in an undulating texture that is subsequently removed before the blocks are polished, chopped and sent off to become cans, cars and computers. This is the last stage in which the metal is seen in its raw state.
In the 'One Side Sawn' series, ThusThat use the offcut crust from a single side of a block. In following the same spirit of reusing trimmings, they make a series of cuts such that each offcut from one piece becomes a part of the next piece, until the sheet is used in its entirety.
The result is a group of jagged puzzled forms covered in rumpled textures that reveal the molten origins of the metal and the industrial mechanisms that shaped it.
Each piece is cut from a single sheet of the aluminium crust, such that no offcuts are left. As such, depending on the orders, each piece within a series is unique and differs slightly from the next one.
The body is comprised entirely of recycled aluminium, that has been meticulously polished, treated and waxed. One side of the metal features the original saw-marks from the factory, while the other showcases the raw and undulating 'crust' texture.
The collection can be assembled and disassembled, and easily recycled.
Led by KevinRouff and Paco Böckelmann, ThusThat bridges collectible design with material science to create pieces that are strong, simple, and direct in form, keeping the complexity packed within the materiality itself. Their work with wastes of the mining and metallurgy industries have received widespread recognition, exhibition, and international awards, with pieces in the permanent collection of the London DesignMuseum and Design Museum Gent.
