This spring we present Origami, the latest result of our collaboration with Spanish designer Carlos Tiscar. The Origami easy chair is built on a wooden frame with details of molded wood covered with cold foam wrapped with flameproof fibre, the bottom is made of Nozag spring. Origami is upholstered in fixed fabric with legs in chrome.

The name Origami comes from the Japanese art of folding paper into 3D objects. Just like origami, Tiscar’s easy chair and sofa consist of angular sections with straight lines. Tiscar has worked with contrasts rather than volumes, and the result is furniture which is sturdy despite its lightweight appearance.
“Together with OFFECCT I’ve created furniture that focuses on human values and comfort. To me, good design is environmentally sound because these objects and furniture tend to have a longer lifespan. As a designer, it is wonderful to be able to work with companies that share this view, and OFFECCT is a role model for its environmental work.”, says Carlos Tiscar.
Tiscar received his degree in industrial design in 1982 from the Applied Arts School in Valencia and then continued his studies at Milan’s Polytechnic School of Design. His professional career began in 1987 as a member of the Factoría Diseño Industrial. He currently designs furnishings for homes, offices and facilities as well as serving as art director to certain clients.

Usually starting from custom made square sheet of paper, these can be colored on one or both sides, and multiple sheets can be combined. Figures can be very simple created by children, or artistic and complex. They have been used in both rituals and ceremonies and for toys, educational items, packages, lamp shades, etc. (Source: Nationalencyklopedin)
Hallo Ineke,
Mijn naam is Gerton Groenendijk en ik woon ik Velp.
Muziek luisteren is mijn grote passie.
En een optimale akoestiek van mijn luisterkamer is daarbij belangrijk.
Met Harmonix room tuning heb ik al een goed effect bereikt.
Maar mijn partner vind die witte dots op de muur niet zo geslaagd.
Ik ben daarom ook geinteresseerd in de mooie acoustische panelen die ik in de Elle van april dit jaar tegen ben gekomen.
Misschien kan je iets betekenen in verhoging van mijn luisterplezier en behouden van de huisstijl in de luisterruimte.
Alvast dank voor je reactie.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Geton Groenendijk

Wellicht kan je iets betekenen om mijn luisterplezier
