2017

After the popularity of the Monolithic Font at Wallpaper* Handmade 2017 in Milan, I continued to play with negative tubular forms carved out of stone and developed two products following the same aesthetics – Flute mortar and pestle and Flute pencil tray. The latter is produced from pigmented cast Jesmonite and comes in a variety of colours. The mortar and pestle set is manufactured by a north Italian stone specialist from Italian sandstone Rosso Etrusco and Pietra Serena.

Pencil trays:
Pigmented Jesmonite
22cm x 10cm x 2.6cm (L x W x H)

Mortar & Pestle:
Rosso Etrusco / Pietra Serena sand stone
12.6cm x 10cm x 3.2cm (L x W x H)

Seubert

is a product design studio in London (UK).

When he first made his now signature wicker and aluminium stools and benches in 2018 for a show at the Hepworth Gallery in Wakefield, German-born (1986, Forchheim) Tino Seubert found that they opened up a whole new design philosophy for him. They became the starting point for his future projects, which all revel in the juxtaposition of the organic and the industrial and enjoy the exploration of unconventional contexts. For Seubert, the organic is often a welcoming entry point into his work, with people from different countries drawn in by familiar traditional craft elements, only to be tantalised by the clash with sleek, precise industrial design. As a designer, he thrives off an energetic participation in the processes that go into making his pieces: whether it’s wood and stonework or metal machining, electronics or anodising aluminium by hand, Seubert is always obsessively engaged with the detail of his creations.
