After the design for a large sculptural aluminum table was done, I became fascinated by a technique called High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) spray coating. Using this technology we could apply ultra-tough coatings of materials like tungsten carbide to softer lightweight structural materials like aluminum. A polished aluminum surface would have been ruined the first time it was used, but this coating would last forever. The only problem was: nobody had ever done a large mirror-polished flat surface before, especially not in the dimensions of our table. So we had to figure out how to do it ourselves. After days and nights of painstakingly trying to grind the tungsten down to a level where it could be polished, I remember well the point in time where only a week before our deadline it just didn’t change. Frantically, we tried everything we could think of and miraculously that eventually resulted in a strategy that worked – literally the night before it had to be shipped. The result was a dark polished curved surface that almost made the large surface disappear. The Bridge table is part of the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, Australia." Was at @friedman_benda in 2010 as mentioned in Design Boom article.

Presentandoles a Joris Laarman: el diseñador más mino de todos 😍😍😍 #JorisLaarman #TumbonaBone #Mino #InLove #Diseñador #Designer #Inspiration #Muack #Design (en Facultad de Diseño UDD)

Groninger museum had een expositie met werk van Joris Laarman. Hij is grandioos met productie. De stoelen komen tevens erg goed uit in de ruimte. Je ziet in de stoelen hoe ze gemaakt zijn en ze stralen kwaliteit uit. Het verhaal achter de productie spreekt mij aan. De hele sfeer die er bij deze expositie hing, heeft me aan het denken gezet. Ik vind het belangrijk dat een product een verhaal heeft wat het ontwerp versterkt. Wat me erg tegen valt is het feit dat ik niets mocht aanraken. In de filmpjes zie je hoe stevig en sterk de stoelen en kunstwerken zijn, tast is belangrijk voor de beleving van een product. Dit mis ik erg vaak tijdens exposities! Het kan een product veel sterker doen overkomen!
