Inpli
In the continuity of Atelier Polyhedre's artistic research, inspiration is first based on interests in traditional Japanese basketry and ancient Greek ceramics. Both open and closed, the Inpli vase is characterized by that thick curved leaf that surrounds it and structures it. This entanglement thus generates the creation of double full handles. The result is an anchored and vertical silhouette, softened by the circular movements over which shadows and lights slide.

DEGRÉ wall shelf
A single shape, two wall shelves and seven possible orientations for a multiplicity of arrangements to imagine. The name DEGRÉ here has a double meaning. Both for its staircase structure but also for its spatial dimension. A terracotta decorative element that, depending on its orientation, still retains its two functions: Accommodate collections or small objects and offer a serial decorative perspective thanks to the variability of the two models. These two DEGRÉ wall shelves (Face and Profile) can echo the formal language of the Art Deco movement or brutalism.
