MAN architects and furniture maker STOONIE are launching a series, named ECHOES, where they design furniture and objects inspired by design and architectural history. The pieces are made in their own workshop (Ghent, Belgium) and in collaboration with local partners.
TILT
Inspired by the minimalism of the 1970s, with influences from artists like Donald Judd and Dan Flavin, this design is a showcase of clean geometry. The object is placed against the wall at a specific angle, creating an intriguing relationship between the furniture, the space, and the viewer.
Standard options are available in birch plywood and marble. Additionally, we are developing other variations and offering custom-made solutions.
STREETS
This design is rooted in architectural history, inspired by Renaat Braem’s ‘Het lelijkste land ter wereld’ (1968) and his critique of the Belgian architectural landscape and urban sprawl. The concept features a composition of distinctive volumes, reflecting a recognizable Belgian streetscape.
The prototype is crafted from Okoumé plywood with aluminum details, and each volume in the sequence has its own functionality, including opening roofs, pull-out shelves, and front cabinet doors.
To reinforce the concept, the final version will be executed in lacquered furniture, in terracotta color with aluminum details.
BAR BOY
This design draws inspiration from the iconic 'Barboy' by Verner Panton and 'Boby' by Joe Colombo. It is characterized by three volumes that relate to each other according to the golden ratio and are 'unfolded' by a brass spindle.
In the spirit of Echoes, the furniture is also crafted in the iconic Alpi veneer, designed by Ettore Sottsass.
