About the Item

Profane side table by Richard Yasmine Materials: Tala noir marble, polished brass, neo cement on metal and treated metal Dimensions: 183cm x 133cm x 118cm For the lovers of hybrid objects, I believe a product should be designed and sculpted as an art piece; it starts with a dream, passes by the first lines to end with the desired result, without messing with the main aim of it, which is the usage. Mixing different materials together in order to create a beyond an ordinary functional product, in a chaotic order with a touch of imaginative visualization, creates my entitled “profane “. It’s a multifunctional product with an edgy concept, consisting of multiple-sized concrete domes as bowls and marble discs as trays connected to removable conical metaphorical tubes or legs made of brass, mechanically turned representing architectural forms and shapes. The product is a philosophical fusion with a symbolism of iconic architectural and ornamental elements inspired from the combination of roman, ottoman, baroque, Indian and byzantine religious places and castles interpreted into smaller mystical shapes sometimes to cover or to hide and seek a certain reality, or to highlight another – from where the statement behind “profane” is “see, hear, speak”. Profane is another divinely sensational design that can be used as a decorative and practical home accessory for a daily use like presentation bowls, serving trays , buffet setup or even as a surrealistic purpose like most of my hybrid objects. If we combine the different parts of “profane”, we can make unlimited pieces with variations in heights and functions. Why profane Because it’s not concerned with any religion or religious purposes, it hypnotizes you till you start wondering about the story behind those different objects. You will figure it out, a magical harmony of “secrets “revealing the factual spirit of the concept. Richard Yasmine a Lebanese interior architect and product designer, filled with imagination using his imaginary world as a simulation to try out new ideas and create new objects inspired of life, objects and emotions, the human body: physiology and needs, but also focuses on internal chaos combined with a certain innate sensitivity; sometimes extreme and provocative or even not expected by others but still minimal, bold, and straightforward without disguising or hiding true reality. He never tends to identify the difference between reality and imagination this what helps him creating intriguing and controversial design objects yet complicated in the process of production however this is distinctive in his personality. Trying always to incorporate a fresh approach sticking to his culture and tradition, frequently in a muddled process but a precise immaculate result not following any specific period or trend but a reflection of his own image. Integrating the Middle Eastern specifically the Lebanese knowhow and spirit within the recipe of each of his products; collaborating with craftsmen, consequently to reveal the oriental feel through an extravagant aspect, searching to spread the marriage between tradition and new technologies, by keeping his signature identity of commotion mixing craziness to sobriety with a touch of fantasy. He showcased his work at la biennale de St Etienne, Paris design week 2015, Milan design week 2016/2017/2018, Beirut art fair 2015/2016, Beirut design week 2015/2016, Dubai design week 2016 and in design junction during the London design festival 2017, Some of his designs has been featured consecutively in Interni, Domus, wallpaper, living-corrieredellaserra, ad, Icon, ideat, elle decoration, monogram, dezeen, design boom, design milk, highsnobiety, the national, Madame, 7daysuae, interiors, Arch newspaper, interior design NEW York, l’orient le jour and many other local and international blogs and magazines … he has been selected by Esquire MIDDLE EAST between the 6 designers to know about in the middle east for 2017 and his work has been featured between the best of Dubai design week 2016 on Yatzer and best of Milan design week 2017 again on Yatzer.

Located in Geneve, CH
Glory holes side table by Richard Yasmine Materials: Statuario marble, polished brass and powder coated metal Dimensions: Diameter 70 x 45 height cm. For him and her talking about “revenge”, sometimes it can be sweet so “sweet” ….therefore my concept was to create a sensational product more like a jewellery piece …I worked on the softness side of the revenge to prove it more sensual then aggressive combining reality and fantasy in a provocative yet glamorous way while preserving the eternal aspect of the design. Made of statuario marble top, solid brass handmade turned and polished, and a metal sheet in gun metal finishing. The brass with its golden color is the material that reflects the oriental feel through an extravagant aspect specially in a polished finishing, the marriage between “statuario” marble and brass emphasizes the required image which here is a “desirable jewel”. Adding that a white and black background accentuate the contrast for these shiny brass elements to show their splendor. “Glory holes” is more than just an ordinary table, well for the first impression “glory holes” is a glamorous object conceived as a piece of jewelry projecting a new dimension in the world of home accessory, it’s a multifunctional object the main function of it is a “soliflore groupage” or a group of small vases from which came the word “glory”, when gathered on the perforated marble...
