Now You See It, Now You Don't
Imagination is the basis of creativity, a maxim which Stockholm-based designer Kunsik took to heart with the Solid - Void collection of furniture, which incorporates empty spaces in their designs to ignite users' imaginations.
The Two Realms chairs, for instance, are made of disjointed lengths of wood with gaps where the backs or arms should be. These enigmatic and highly sculptural designs resemble buildings under construction, or perhaps pixelated images of chairs which have only been partially downloaded. The Void Cabinets feature open back and side panels obscured by semi-translucent sheets of silicone. Like partially wrapped gifts, they urge you to reach inside and explore their contents.
The ambiguities of these pieces invite different perspectives and interpretations, making your imagination the most important part of the design.
