Grid-Structured Furniture

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

OS ∆ OOS Design Studio Created Its Matrix Project from Grid Structures

— January 22, 2018 — Art & Design
OS ∆ OOS is a design studio based in Eindhoven and has just unleashed its 'Matrix Project,' a unique light and bench with a metal grid structure. The design studio plays with juggling materials with forms and understanding the pieces in correlation to its surroundings. The Matrix Project first started as a concept that would enable an infinite amount of reconstruction and adaptations, basing the foundation on the concept of "form meets function," to create multiple concepts of adjustable constructions.

Utilizing a three-dimensional grid concept, the light and bench are crafted from steel linings that can be rearranged in many possible directions to create several structures. Due to the high level of customization offered, the individual ribs can be re-designed to be structures for interior purposes or exterior architectural pieces that range from surfaces, seating and lighting.
