descripción de productos
‘Pure' is a word that the Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen (1962) uses a lot when talking about Totem, the new cabinet he has designed for the Dutch furniture manufacturer Pastoe. The shape, for example, is pure. "Every detail has been thought through," Van Duysen explains. "The proportions of the thickness of the material and the dimensions of the bodies are carefully harmonised."
The symmetry and the use of the cabinet, which consists of linked bodies, are also pure. Van Duysen: "The cabinet can be adapted according to the consumer's taste. By playing with the layouts, colours and finishes, you can create a powerful or slender piece of furniture."
Also pure are the interiors and building the Flemish architect is renowned for. Van Duysen designs modest buildings with clear forms and subtle contrasts. Solid concrete wall are given large windows, which make the structure appear fragile. Soft materials like timber and textile are mixed with robust natural stone.
Simplicity and clarity - these are the properties of both his architecture and his furniture. It is not without reason he describes Totem as domestic architecture. "Just like a building in a city, the cabinet is a free standing object that you can look at from all sides and you can walk around. It takes an autonomous place in the interior. You can also change Totem by filling it with personal items. It's the same with architecture. You can only truly experience a building by entering it and making it your own."
