BRUT SHELVE
Designer By Ferreol Babin
The Brut shelves demonstrate a meeting point between clean lines and rough edges.
Simple in appearance, they play with materiality to present a series that is visually light and structurally grounded. Using different types of glass as the structural boundary of the series, solid marble slabs appear to float within.
Three precisely cut edges meet the glass sides, leaving a roughly broken front. Utilising off-cut marble from Austria, drilled holes assist with the clean break of each piece. Combining a smooth glass exterior with raw cut marble, the brut shelves are an exercise in contradictions.
The heavy marble shelves appear as if to float within the structural glass exterior, with a raw cut front to the off-cut marble slabs further emphasising a unique combination of elements and textures.
DESIGNER
FERRÉOL BABIN
“Remarkable design for me is a fine picture of rationality and emotion”, says Ferréol Babin who works for companies, art galleries and collections, producing series as well as unique pieces. What all his objects, functional or artistic, have in common is his artisanal search for new forms.
Similar to a sculptor, the French product and space designer loves to shape things with his hands, often with a focus on experiment, experience and surprise. Undoubtedly, this is the reason for his distinctive portfolio of furniture, luminaires and accessories, which all have a sensual, almost archaic design vocabulary.
According to pulpo, to make an excellent design, the chemistry needs to spark between the house of design and the creative mind of the designer.
When pulpo and the charismatic designer met during the Milanese furniture fair, it happened – the reason why Ferréol Babin is an exception to pulpo never giving a brief. The surprising results: Building, Lake and Mountain, a playful miniature landscape, part of the Fabulously Awesome Tablescape collection.
