Thrinax
Thrinax
Thrinax is made of metal and North American walnut, looks like it’s ready to take off. And, indeed, it can flap and light up on demand. Despite the heavy, tropical-looking wood used in its making, the open plan of its design makes it seem so light that it could float. Vaguely inspired by the image of a palm tree, the hypnotic motion is comforting and mesmerizing at the same time.
Limited edition of 15 pieces.
