About the Item

From Graywacke Offcut Series. Manufactured by Carsten in der Elst . Exclusively for SIDE. Germany, 2023. Greywacke stone, felt. Measurements 33 x 40 x 60,5h cm 12,9 x 15,7 x 23,8h cm Hight Seat: 41,5 cm 16,4 in Provenance Cologne, Germany. Exhibitions Sourcing Stone 24th March - 21st April 2023, Side Gallery, Barcelona. Concept Making industrial materials hybrid has been on in der Elst’s agenda since his studies. The Graywacke Offcut series is a continuation of the designer’s fieldwork carried out at a local sandstone quarry, Lindlar, during his graduation project. Always seeking the irregular in the regular, enormous piles of discarded sandstone offcuts became the sole subject for the designer’s work. Graywacke, the name of the particular sandstone found at Lindlar, is commonly used for the manufacturing of pavement stones, and for building materials in the NRW region of Germany. When producing stones for sidewalks for example, a slab of Graywacke is cut in a grid like shape. All the sides of the slab, know as the “crust”, are discarded as industrial by-product, and thrown to the side, creating large piles of disused stone. Due to this grid cut, the crust-pieces with a natural exterior have dimensionally equal properties, which allows them to be preserved as unique building blocks - and the basis for Carsten in der Elst Greywacke furniture project.

Contemporary Chair, Sustainable Natural Yaré Fiber, by Fango 'F. Jaramillo'
By Fango
Located in Barcelona, ES
Manufactured by Fango. Colombia, 2023 Yaré fiber and metal structure. Measurements 46 x 56 x 90h cm 18,1 x 22 x 35,4h in Provenance Fango Studio, Medellín, Colombia. Exhibitions Casavells 2023. Concept The Ibuju collection projects the synergy of designing and storytelling, an essential intention of Fango’s creative director, Francisco Jaramillo. The series stems from concern over the indiscriminate logging and overuse of the native woods from the endangered green lung of planet earth, the Amazon, a jungle increasingly fading from the world. Looking for alternatives to build functional furniture in native materials, Jaramillo and the weavers of Fango discovered the renewable Yaré fiber. Yaré is a fiber commonly called “vine", a root that grows around the trunks of trees in the Colombian Amazon. These fibers are used by local indigenous communities in southern Colombia for handcrafted weaving, which inspired Jaramillo to translate the native aesthetics and geometries of primitive wooden...
