Ezra Ardolino, who is the founder and designer of digital studio Timbur unveils the N90N collection, which is made up of three surrealist furniture designs. It was first unveiled during NYCxDesign 2023 at Tuleste Factory as a part of the Harmonious Proportions show. The limited edition looks are inspired by the designer's fascination with geometric shapes and rely on his expertise in working with sculptural wood. The pieces include 5P1R4L ("SPIRAL"), D0U8L3 ("DOUBLE"), and 7R1PL3 ("TRIPLE").
Designer and founder of Timbur, Ezra Ardolino shares elements of the 5P1R4L's design and build, explaining that "There is a dialogue that unfolds when working in a material practice. The material – in this case plywood – communicates its unique textural qualities, and as a designer, I work to immerse myself in this conversation by pushing the dimensional envelope while operating in the digital space."
