RATTAN & RECYCLED PET

The revival of rattan is clearly visible in modern Dutch interiors. However, the design of rattan products remains fairly traditional. Reason for orange or red to explore how this material might be used differently. We discovered that rattan can be combined perfectly with recycled PET yarn. orange or red looked primarily at the materials themselves: their specific qualities and the ways in which they could be connected. We developed a modular system where the elements can be used in varying compositions, where they can be replaced or separated from each other. We developed a side table and a room divider – two concrete objects in which curved rattan uprights are literally interwoven with cloths made of PET yarn. The combination of these materials results in an entirely new image.
