AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Based on the idea that everything on earth is influenced by gravity—a force that strongly shapes form—Jólan leverages this natural phenomenon by manipulating the force of magnetism. The designer has created a special magnet machine that resembles a tensile machine. This machine can initiate a small but effective link in the production chain. Using the magnetic field it generates, the design rises from a bowl of liquid plastic mixed with iron powder.

I am unable to watch videos directly. Please provide the transcript or main points for translation.

The shape of the stool is characterized by pointed and organic shapes that reflect natural forms. Jólan van der Wiel was the winner of the Interior Innovation Award with his project Gravity stool. This item is a showcase model but brand new, retail price is 1150 EU but we offer it for a bit less to the Catawiki community. We ship it carefully in a special box, so reason shipment is a bit more expensive.

Seller's Story

Transnatural manages a unique collection of art & design works. Natural processes, extraordinary material concepts, research and experimentation are often the starting point for the creators. This results in distinctive art and (custom) designs, serving a global network of clients. The artists’ production methods pay close attention to new, alternative energy and environmentally friendly material resources. We explore ways how to (re-) design our living spaces so that users, nature and technology can expand, enrich and feed each other. Transnatural serves a global network of clients (retailers, galleries, architects, designers, consumers) and develops projects that reach beyond any standard result.
