Zack Nestel-Patt presents the new Jura collection under his Ah Um Design Studio brand. He brings a soulful approach with these designs with dynamic textures and bold silhouettes. It brings his musical roots to the forefront and integrates it into furniture design.
The function shifts but the same sensitivity follows through at a new scale, bringing attention to the emotional textures of products. Nestel-Patt shares more on the design, “I am obsessed with texture, not just texture as in a tactile aspect to a material, but texture as an emotional component to designing and living with objects. Being able to see and feel the remnants of the hands that made or designed something imbues an object with feeling, history, and thought.”
