PET

The intention of PET is to include the Nordic tradition of craftsmanship as well as making use of the qualities of daylight flowing through a layered structure. By creating a grid built up by one singular module, a diagonal slice of a PET-bottle, a light-weight and tactile form is constructed. The cube is describing mass, although being almost weightless, as well as diffusing and reflecting the light shining through it.

The choice of PET material was made because of its recyclable character, but also because of it being plastic - a material sometimes used by Sverre Fehn to form structures that would diffuse the light.

Materials are often defined as of a “low” or “high” value within a certain context. By switching their usual realm, adaption or by expanding their field of function, that sense of value could be altered with amazing results.
