Storage-Centric Minimal Furniture

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Julian Topor Designs the KURVE Furniture with Storage Spaces

— March 8, 2024 — Art & Design
Julian Topor designs the KURVE Furniture, which is a minimal collection concept that highlights storage functions above all else. It is comprised of curved layers of plywood, which embodies a warm and simple aesthetic. The simple design optimizes space, offering a place to sit and store items away.

The KURVE seat keeps it minimal as it only has a curve that wraps around an empty vessel under the seating surface and an additional curve on the sides as a place to hook items. It has no legs at the base, with a backless curved box as the bottom half as support. The entire structure including the arms, seat, and backrest are made from a single sheet of layered plywood with bent detail. It is followed by the KURVE couch, which is similar but stretched out. It is rounded out by the table and Night Stand.
