Oeuffice's Kapital Table Series is Inspired by Modernist Architecture

— August 6, 2014 — Art & Design
Oeuffice is known for their innovative designs that mix aesthetics with practicality and their Kapital table collection is no exception to this tradition. Nicolas Bellavance-Lecompte and Jakub Zak are the Canadian designer duo behind the brand that uses traditional materials in a fresh way.

"After decades of being invaded by synthetic and technical materials, modern furniture design is embracing the return of rare and natural elements and such as marble".

Oeuffice's latest Kapital table series features table and stool furnishings that boast a clean and geometric look. The pieces are inspired by Modernist masterpieces and structures and are made using a combination of 3 different marble materials.

The collection brings the monumental Italian material into one's home and blends historical inspirations with modern design details.
