Two blocks of marble. A bolt of lightning between them. The moment of impact, frozen.

"Electric Rocks"

Designed by Mark Mitchell Design for Italian marble company Serafini ,

Built around a single idea: capturing lightning at the exact point of strike. The marble blocks are split apart, their surfaces polished and coated in gold leaf to accentuate the bolt.

The lightning element itself is entirely handcrafted from 2200K diodes and stainless steel, engineered to mimic the intensity and irregularity of a real arc of electricity.

Throughout history, stones struck by lightning were considered permanently altered by celestial force.

"Violet Frosted" by Marius Boekhorst

Through precise arrangement of geometric glass pieces and carefully selected florals, Marius Boekhorst orchestrates a multi-layered optical experience that sits between static composition and quiet motion.

Patterned (textured) glass, resin, and artificial flowers,

Because Boekhorst creates unique, hand-sculpted works, you may find other pieces in the same stylistic family with slightly different specifications.

Birdhouse by Kids

The process begins with an introduction to local bird species in Cambodia and basic birdhouse typologies. Within this framework, children develop individual responses through drawing and clay modeling. These early studies are then translated into physical constructions using materials such as wood, cardboard, and paper.

Finishing stages involve the use of crayons, maintaining continuity with the original drawings, followed by a protective acrylic lacquer coating. Each completed birdhouse combines functional requirements with sculptural variation, resulting in a set of objects defined by distinct forms and individual expression.

The project, led by designer Taekhan Yun, highlights how participatory processes can generate alternative approaches to design, where interpretation, material translation, and construction are shaped through children’s spatial imagination.

"Metal Affair"

Armchair shaped after the mimicry of its glass structure and metallic mesh support base.

The transparency of the glass gives all of the visual aesthetic prominence to the metal, which conforms a metal framework as if it were a textile piece.
