Stacklab, "Gold Cube", Contemporary Side Table, Canada, 2016
About the Item
The Cube Series was first founded in 2013 through a partnership with an engineer-turned-concrete-artisan in Toronto to make productive (re)-use of a historic, decommissioned pump pattern that had been in storage locally for over a half century.
Patterns are the original ‘positives’ used in the production of sand-cast metal parts, a method of casting dating back to 1300BC. While patterns are still commonly used in manufacturing, they are regularly decommissioned and archived in response to industry innovation. There is a growing abundance of unproductive Industrial patterns in foundries and factories.
STACKLAB identified that storing these patterns indefinitely is a notable waste of space and resources - especially in a city like Toronto with high rents and high utility costs.
For this series, STACKLAB focused specifically on repurposing patterns from 1890-1950. During this period, patterns were often hand carved by skilled craftspeople whose specialized knowledge of metallurgy and woodworking has been mostly forgotten in today’s era of computer-aided manufacturing. The Cube Series proposed a system for converting disused historic patterns into molds to create contemporary sculptural furnishing.
The result is The Cube Series that reintegrates decommissioned manufacturing materials into the scaled production of useful, modern objects and celebrates Canada’s rich manufacturing history- two of STACKLAB's guiding interests.

STACKLAB
Toronto-based multi-disciplinary design studio STACKLAB splits its two-pronged approach to design between products and architectual projects. Whether it is the Garrison stool made out of recycled bridge metal or a prototype for a greenhouse, STACKLAB blends design and technology to create innovative work.
Founded by Jeff Forrest in 2013, STACKLAB prioritizes intelligent design, efficient manufacturing and eco-friendly practices. Its conceptual work has included radical transformations like turning McDonald’s cup trays into boomboxes — an idea that garnered the studio a highlight in Inc. Magazine — and the Felt Collection of furniture that is crafted out of excess Merino wool scraps.
In 2015 and 2016, the City of Toronto’s Fine Art Collection and the Embassy of Canada in Reykjavík, Iceland, added STACKLAB pieces to their permanent collections. In 2016, STACKLAB won the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID)’s Design Innovation Award. It has received honors in the Best of Canada Awards in two separate categories: Product in 2016 and 2020 as well as Project in 2017.
