On the crest of a wave
28.8.2019
Translation: machine translated
I almost feel dizzy when I look at the design objects that are in vogue right now. Is it because they make me feel on the crest of a wave?
Or because I can't wait for my next beach holiday? Be that as it may, one thing is certain: waves are a trendy feature in interior design. You find them in glassware, but not only. Wavy shapes can also be recognised in items made of different materials. In any case, the soft character of this shape gives a certain impetus to the object itself and makes us long for the 'sea'.
A new balance in lighting
Corrugated glass shades diffuse light in a different way than traditionally shaped ones, because they cast a sinuous, flexible shadow on the wall. Being transparent, these models allow a glimpse of what they enclose within, and the light source is particularly seductive in the evening.
A new balance of accessories
Whether it is a soap dish or an organically shaped vase - waves set new formal balances in motion. Combine these objects with other accessories with soft contours, or contrast them with those with squarer shapes.
Wave-shaped ceramic or glass objects give the table setting a dynamic look that will impress. The waves give a certain liveliness to the smooth surface of the table. Something that fascinates at first glance.
Wiggly furniture is softer
Seating furniture can exploit the formal wave element both ergonomically and decoratively, as the sinuous lines have a sculptural appeal.
