Kaj – design Celine Strömbäck and Ida Björses

Celine Strömbäck and Ida Björses for Blå Station. With a starting point in sustainable materials that are impervious to time we have focused on wood, leather and metal in creating our design. We have sought to make an item of furniture that does not wear out or lose its function, but instead acquires a patina. Every material has its own function and we have let its particular characteristics shape our design for an item that can be used as a hall furniture or a sideboard with both seating and a counter top. We experimented with balance and mirroring forms, and with symmetry and asymmetry, seeking a construction that emphasizes each specific material.
