Strit
IRONIC WIT
As adults,
it’s hard to not take ourselves too seriously in the midst of overscheduled,
busy lives. Strit is designed to remind us of the humor, wit and irony within.
His mobile legs, arms, torso and head can move in any number of configurations
– from delight to concern, and anything in between – reminding us to reexamine
and reconfigure our point of view.
Material: Handmade in teak
and beech wood
Dimension: H12,5 cm
| About Designer | |
|---|---|
Hans Bølling |
Bølling’s
work is known for its play, humor and wit. A passionate spirit whose practice
and products are inspired by creative diversity, Bølling’s interest in
architecture drew him back to school for a secondary degree after training as
an advertising designer, growing his practice beyond objects to include villas,
living complexes and town halls.
As luck would have it, Bølling shortly
thereafter won an award for the designs and invested the winnings into his own
carpentry machine. The access to the means of production kick-started the
production of Bølling’s now-famous Duck and Duckling in the 1950’s. |
