Benjamin Hubert: new launches




I always appreciate Benjamin Hubert's products. Great lines and research process, awesome use of materials and never disappointing. I love when designers are able to keep on working on quality stuff and never lose their way. As designers, we have some responsibilities and I think it has become completely unnecessary to produce, just to produce without any passion, love and research. Benjamin is always surprising with his elegant, simple, yet contemporary and never tacky style. Well done and thanks for keep on doing good design.
''Pelt is a dining chair comprised of plywood and solid ash launched at the London Design Festival in collaboration with Portuguese manufacturer De La Espada. The chair has a thin 8mm plywood shell that wraps around a solid ash frame, akin the skin over an animal’s skeleton. 
Bow is a series of furniture including a trestle table launched at the London Design Festival in collaboration with Portuguese manufacturer
De La Espada. 
Bow is a system of simple timber frames and surfaces held in tension by a rolled sheet of mild Steel. The rolled steel allows for a great strength to weight ratio swell as economy of materials.''
