Dune Formation Furnitures - Yanko Design

Another twenty-four hours, some other step towards global domination for the ubiquitous creative powerhouse that is Zaha Hadid. This fourth dimension she's presenting a new collection of works, Dune Formations, recently unveiled at the Venice Biennale and at present showing at London's David Gill Galleries.

We've always been large fans of Zaha's piece of furniture design and Dune Formations merely serve to cement the high regard in which we hold her as a product designer in her own correct, non merely an builder capable of turning her hand to the odd chair. An organic ensemble of shelving, tables, benches and sculptural display pieces inspired by the natural forms of their sandy namesakes, Dune Formations employ the same fluid curves and proposition of undulating movement that are characteristic of her recent creative output.

Defying the established modes of predominately using merely vertical and horizontal planes for furniture, Zaha Hadid has created each slice with a distinctly sculptural approach calculation an overall 3-dimensional feel to the range. Advanced 3-D modelling techniques and innovative materials were used to translate the designs from drawings into furniture with a highly polished dichromatic end. The drove is centred around the Dune Tree, more sculptural object than utilisable article of furniture piece, finished in orange and gold, reminiscent of a sand landscape at sunset.
