Stine Mikkelsen’s Solid Formations Is Part Furniture, Part Sculpture

Danish designer Stine Mikkelsen was inspired by Italian geology when she designed Solid Formations, a collection that blurs the line between furniture and sculpture. She developed two new composite materials that use marble and volcanic ash as the primary materials to create various sculptural objects, furniture and fixtures. The result is a collection that resembles the shapes and textures found in natural landscapes and geometric formations created by humans. Because the material or production method in Solid Formations can’t be intuitively deducted, the collection encourages us to engage in a dialogue of discovery with the objects.

This collection is exclusively represented by Aybar Gallery in Miami, Florida.
