Oak side table, model Draagkracht, designed by Studio à la part, in as-new condition, with a 40 cm diameter round top and 35 cm height, produced in the Netherlands from 2020 onwards.
Description from the seller
Side table "Draagkracht"
The side table is designed from a single simple idea: no one has to stand alone.
The four separate legs together carry a single round top. Each leg has its own place, form and wood grain, but it is only when the pieces come together that a sturdy and usable whole is formed. In this way the design stands for what people can achieve when they are given space, guidance and the confidence to participate.
The round shape has no beginning, no end and no dominant position. Everyone takes an equal place within the same circle. The solid oak depicts growth and resilience: a natural material that needs time to become strong and in whose grain each tells its own story.
Draagkracht is designed by Studio à la part and, under professional guidance, hand-crafted by makers who are building their place within society and the labor market. The furniture is not made out of pity, but out of talent, collaboration and the belief that good craftsmanship can emerge when people are given a fair chance.
The net proceeds from this auction are used for new material. Thus, every sold stool literally carries capacity to the next project and gives a new maker the opportunity to gain experience, confidence and craftsmanship.
