Sment Boasts a Collection of Three Pigment-Enhanced Objects
Kalin Ned — November 7, 2018 — Art & Design
Belgian design studio Sment releases a collection of Gestalt furniture that features interesting materials and engaging shapes. The objects within the range are geometric and made with concrete. To give the illusion of a much more luxurious material, Sment adds a dark pigment to the mixture and thus, each of the Gestalt furniture has a smooth stone-like exterior.
The technique used to produce this effect is quite curious as the company "investigated several ways of using [the] pigment." The material is not the only thing that captures attention, however. The studio produces three distinct designs — a tall, cylindrical lamp, an arched seat and a low-rise, ring-shaped table. Each token in the Gestalt furniture collection bears an interesting, sculptural shape that adds an aura of abstractionism to the piece.
