Kube

Industrial Design | Sustainability
KUBE was created by bringing design students and local craftspeople together, resulting in meaningful relationships though collaboration and transfer of knowledge.

Structural and formal experimentation

​A cube emerges from an ingeniously bent precision steel tube drawn by a single line in space. KUBE is a cantilever side table which actually cantilevers twice. This feature allows for the table surface to remain horizontal when holding weight, where typical cantilever designs tilt. Spatially, KUBE presents a point symmetrical object that successfully eludes different forms when viewed from multiple perspectives.

KUBE was designed and produced in collaboration with two local craftsmen in Berlin. After the project, a group of fellow students and me founded Haus Brandenburg, a collaborative plattform for sustainable design by creating a network of regional craftspeople and local designers. For more information please visit our Haus Brandenburg website or our Blog.
