Kalota collection was inspired by a sphere's geometry with axes radiating from the centre. They followed a set of logically interconnected geometric rules suitable for producing a range of different construction iterations, all of which respect the inherent logic of solid wood as a material.
Concept for Kalota collection was designed and developed through investigation in geometry. Kalota is in fact a geometric term used for describing portion of a sphere. We have decided to follow a predetermined set of rules related to spherical geometry in order to achieve desired tangent transitions on strategic places between different furniture parts. For example, bottom edge of horizontal surfaces were all designed as a spherical cutouts with leg constrained perpendicular to spherical surface.
This constraint allowed us to design beautiful continuous surface transitions on visible outer portions of furniture legs that are carried out in different typologies within collection, tables, consoles and low tables. Similar principles were later adapted and applied in other typologies, such as chairs, stools and bar-stools with adjustments made to meet specific demands for each item within collection.
In case of table design that features artisan quality solid wood construction with high-end ceramic tabletops we were very pleased with a final result. It is characterized by very refined, timeless look and is suitable for a wide range of interior design projects.
