Antrei Hartikainen — a "master cabinet maker and designer," creates a collection of ornamental furniture for Poiat Studio. The chic capsule, which has been dubbed 'Bastone,' features a series of cabinets and sideboards. The sophisticated aesthetic of the expertly crafted pieces is vastly tied to modernism, as the construction plays with light and shadows in a very subtle way. A unique balance is achieved between the stylistically driven sculptural quality of Antrei Hartikainen's ornamental furniture and its functional manifestation in the home.
The designs in the Bastone collection are made of solid oak and available in two colorways — natural oak which boasts a calming aura and wood that is stained black which can instill a strong sense of elegance in any interior.
