Designer: Alexey Haro

Materials: Steel, fabric
Produced: Kiev, Ukraine

Date: June, 2017
Corner is a minimalistic set of outdoor furniture. Form, which combines austerity and appearance on the verge of reality. At first sight, it seems that the steel profile will bend, or walk from side to side. This effect was achieved with a partition that can not be seen from the frontal view. Steel base supplemented with perforation to give even more air, as well as for ventilation and drainage of rainwater. Soft parts are trimmed with a special fabric for outdoor furniture.
Before developing the Corner, I was inspired by simple geometric shapes and perforated steel parts. I made an attempt at combining hard and soft, cold and warm, sharp and rounded.
