NOVÝ SKOK. A side table or stool. A collaboration between Frida van der Poel and Bastiaan Luijk. The innovative strength of this design is the combination of traditional craftsmanship and digital artisanry.

From SKOK to NOVÝ SKOK

The starting point is the shape of the well-known '3-poot': SKOK. Originally designed in 1994 by Frida van der Poel. The base is made of recycled wenge wood. A new detail has been added to the recognizable shape. The shape and pattern of the top surface are 3D modeled using algorithms. The result is a fine-mesh structure, inspired by a mesmerizing pattern occurring in nature: 'spiral phyllotaxis'. The seat is 3D printed from strong and durable matt black material: a MIX of renewable raw materials PLA (polylactic acid) and lignin.
